favorite part of my job: This is going to sound strange, but my favorite part of my job is that, because I work with 4-year-olds, they still think I am cool and funny to be around (unlike my teenagers at home). I can make them laugh, they have complete trust in me, and are innocent children of God. They question NOTHING when it comes to His love for them. It's awesome!

favorite verse of scripture: Psalm 4:8 "I will lie down in peace and sleep, for you alone, O Lord, will keep me safe." (NLT)

hometown: Born in Branson, MO, but my hometown is Garner, NC

family: husband Jim, kids Drew (17), Elizabeth (13) and John (8); our pets are Charlie (Treeing Walker Coonhound), Deuce (Redbone Coonhound mIx) and Lilly Finn (Miniature Schnauzer).

hobbies: driving my '72 Caddy Convertible, watching the Packers, playing with family and friends, deer and dove hunting, skeet and range shooting

factoid about me: My husband and I drive twin Yamaha Warrior motorcycles.
