About Me

My photo
I've been married to my husband, Michael, for almost 25 years. I'm a mom to a biological son and an adopted son from Colombia, and I'm also a spiritual mom to my adopted son's older brother, who I claim as a son in my heart. I'm bilingual and love to work with and relate to Spanish-speaking children and families. I've been a teacher to students from all sorts of backgrounds and cultures for the last 20+ years. I'm also an author and a certified Biblical counselor. I'm in a new empty nest season in a new location far from where I raised my boys, so I'm definitely in a stage of rediscovering myself, my interests, and my purpose.

Defensive MVP

Gotta brag on my son. I went to his end of year soccer banquet for high school tonight. I was one proud mom when his coach announced the three awards for the JV team, and he won one of them!  I am so happy for him!

Another one of those moments when I think, "What if . . . ?"
 
 "What if we decided it wasn't worth trying all over again the second time to adopt him?"

Here is a picture from yesterday's game from his recreational soccer team, FC Garland. All of the boys in the picture are on the same high school team, but yesterday they had to play as opponents in the recreational league. Made for an interesting game, especially when the yellow guys won. :)
