I am first a privileged child of God and follower of Jesus. My sweet servant-hearted husband, Gary, and I have been married for over 36 years. We have four amazing grown children – two sons and one daughter on Earth, one son in Heaven, two lovely daughters-in-love, and one beautiful grand daughter. Oh, and forgetting to mention our three ornery dachshunds would be unforgivable.
Music, writing, reading, and talking about what God is doing in my life are my passions. In my Strength Finders test, I was confirmed in connectedness and ideation – simply put I love to see how God connects us all and I have a million ideas for a million people.
Teaching, in one form or another, has been my career since I was sixteen. I just retired from being music teacher and worship leader at an incredible elementary Christian school. Passionate about natural health care, I am currently blessed to work part time for our family Chiropractor which allows me more time for God, Gary, my family and writing.
Writing has been a hobby for most of my life. Recently I’ve put more energy into this when I realized everyone was tired of listening to me talk. 🙂
Other favorite past times have been spending time with my family and friends and speaking at Christian Women’s Clubs.
My life verses:
Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.
Philippians 1:6 being confident in this, that He who began a good work in you, will be faithful to complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.
