Introduction

I am driven.  I live to make my mother proud because she worked incredibly hard for my sister and me to be happy and successful.  I am blessed with the most intelligent and beautiful daughter.  Her energy and spirit capture my heart and I love her with every part of my body and soul.  I had no idea that you could love someone that much that you had only known for so little of time.  I have a great husband and step-son.  They are the perfect father son team and together I am a very lucky woman. 

My perfect day would be rain clouds, and a slight drizzle falling from the sky.  Not enough to interrupt any regularly scheduled programs, but enough to keep you inside and under a blanket.  I would have a glass of peppermint tea and something downloaded on my Kindle that could be read in a day.  I would not want to live my perfect day not knowing the end to a perfect short story.

You have one thing to do in life, live it. I think too many times we make excuses on why we cannot do something or why an idea that was successful for someone else was not successful for us.  The thing is we are guaranteed absolutely no time on this earth so my message is simple, live each day like it is your last.  Always tell the people you love you love them and have fun.

In the world of education we have choices to make as educators (and have already made some choices); we can either teach to teach or teach to motivate students’ creativity.
