Joshua 24:15 - "But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD."
L to R: Bryan (Hubby of almost 21 years), Aaron (now age 9), Courtney (now age 17), and yep, the lady on the right is me! Location: Grand Canyon in 2008.
A few pertinent facts:
Hubby is also a WDC author! - (BScholl ![](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/costumicons/ps-icon-regular-40.gif) ) He saw how much fun I was having on here, so he jumped on board too. I love having him on here because it really gives us something to connect over! Thanks WDC!
Yep, my son is every bit as ornery as he looks, and boy, does he keep life interesting. He drives me insane and makes me laugh all at the same time,
and when the day is done, he's my cuddle bug!
Then, there is my daughter, my first born. I am so proud of her! She is intelligent, hardworking, level-headed, independent and most importantly, dedicated to living out her faith in Christ.
And no -- I don't know where the blond hair comes from....????
I'm 40 years old, and for the past 13 years, I have been a middle school language arts teacher in a district with a large population of at-risk students. I have three degrees: BA in English from Miami U., BS in Education from Miami U. and a MS in Literacy from the U. of Dayton. Hobbies include writing, reading, photography, scrapbooking, and a serious addiction to NCIS.
I joined WDC because I reached a point where I realized I needed to start taking my writing seriously. Perhaps, it was a mid-life crises, but I didn't want to reach the end of my life and think, "You know I could have..." So, whether I only write for myself or go further, I'll have no regrets.
