Introduction	I am a wife and a stay@home mom of one daughter, 2 parakeets, and 8 fish. I enjoyed teaching High School level science before making the leap to full-time motherhood. Spending the last 6 years involved with the MOPS group at Grace Baptist Church has been a vital part of my growth and development as a wife, mother, & leader. MOPS leadership has been both gratifing and challenging as I learned to reach out and encourage moms as they experience the "pre-school years" with their children.
