Gender Female
Occupation mom, wife, friend, 3rd grade teacher
Location Brea, CA
Introduction Larry and I live in a small house under the green maple trees. It is an orderly place, filled with books, chocolate cake and memories. We have four children, now scattered. Micah and his Jodi, in Shanghai with 2 dear girls. We dote on their every long distance video. Aaron & his adorable Jessica work at facebook and live in SF. Ani and Brian live in a pretty row house in SF. She spends her days at Creative Commons and Brian is an Apple engineer. And Laurel, after wandering the country, has settled in SF as well, adding her creative spark to Photojojo. My day by day job is teaching 3rd grade, satifisying when a child masters long division or reads through Harry Potter. But my vocation is the people I love, my family, (What a joy to set extra plates around the table when kids are home with us!) and the women I meet with to talk and pray each week. Joys, such as kid's weddings, big accomplishments, new grandkids, insights from God's word tie us together-- as well as heartaches of unexpected surgeries, marriages gone awry, job problems. I thank God for the best parents, 4 dear children, friends I can grow old with and a home and life with my Larry. God is good.
Interests Cooking for family & friends, trips to the library, traveling anywhere!, stitching up quilts for my kids, talking & laughing with friends.
