My Passions
The things that bring me joy and make my heart full
Kindergarten Teaching
Shaping young minds and hearts
Teaching kindergarten isn't just my job - it's my calling. Every morning, I get to walk into a room full of bright eyes and endless curiosity. There's pure magic in watching a child write their name for the first time or finally sound out a tricky word. I believe the early years set the foundation for a lifetime of learning. My classroom is a place where creativity thrives, mistakes are celebrated as learning opportunities, and every child knows they are loved and capable of amazing things.
Singing
Lifting my voice in praise and joy
Music has always been part of who I am. Whether I'm singing at church, humming while I cook dinner, or leading songs in my classroom, music fills my soul with joy. There's something powerful about lifting your voice - it can comfort, inspire, and bring people together. I especially love worship music. Being part of my church's music ministry allows me to use my voice for something bigger than myself. It's a beautiful way to connect with my faith and serve others through song.
Crafts & DIY
Creating beauty with my hands
Give me some craft supplies and a Pinterest board, and I'm in my happy place! I love the satisfaction of making something beautiful with my own two hands. From seasonal decorations to homemade gifts, there's always a project in progress at my house. Crafting isn't just about the finished product - it's about the process. It's therapy, creativity, and accomplishment all wrapped into one. Plus, handmade gifts from the heart mean so much more than anything store-bought.
Making Moments Special
Adding magic to everyday life
I believe life is too short for ordinary moments. Whether it's setting a pretty table for a weeknight dinner, creating fun themed activities for my students, or planning special surprises for loved ones, I love adding a touch of magic to everyday life. It doesn't take much - sometimes just a few extra details can transform something routine into something memorable. These little touches of joy are what make life beautiful.
Faith
The foundation of everything I do
My faith is at the center of who I am. It guides how I teach, how I love, and how I see the world. Being part of a church community has given me purpose, support, and lifelong friendships. I try to live out my faith through kindness, service, and spreading joy wherever I go. Teaching little ones about love and compassion is one of the greatest privileges of my life.
Family
My greatest blessing
Family is everything to me. The love, laughter, and support of my family keeps me grounded and grateful. Whether we're gathering for holidays, having a cozy movie night, or just sharing a meal together, these are the moments I treasure most. Being a wife and being part of a loving family has taught me so much about patience, grace, and unconditional love. These relationships inspire me to be the best version of myself.
