Introduction I'm happily married to my best friend, Bear. We're both former Air Force officers; he's retired. I got out of the military when our second daughter was born, stayed home with and homeschooled our children until our youngest entered ninth grade several years ago. For four years I worked full-time as our parish Director of Religious Education. It was a ministry rather than a 'job' and didn't leave any time for my family, reading, writing and crafting. So now I am an unpaid volunteer for Him.
