“I've come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element in the classroom. It's my daily mood that makes the weather. As a teacher, I possess a tremendous power to make a child's life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration. I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis will be escalated or de-escalated and a child humanized or de-humanized.”

- I am the wife to a wonderful man. We homeschool our three children: ages 12, 6.5, 3. We are blessed to be expecting a new baby in early 2009. Our family raises dairy goats, and exhibition poultry. We are licensed foster parents. When I'm not chasing kids I like to crochet and make soap.
