My friends and family say I'm the best third wheel around, but I think it might be time for me to go on dates with someone else. ; )

Some things I am: a good mom, a patient H.S. special ed teacher, optimistic, intelligent, accepting, pretty, warm, witty and stylish.

Some things I am NOT: skinny, critical, controlling, prompt or a perfectionist.

Some things I love: my son, trees, stories, holding babies, learning, tamales, Louis Armstrong, the good ol' USA, blue, my siblings, birds, and helping things grow.

Some things I hate: meanness, cilantro, centipedes and being misunderstood.

Just so you know, I can't have any more children, but I would be a great step mom!
