- Bio
- I’m a child of God, a daughter, a sister, a wife, a mother, a teacher, a friend, and I have been blogging since 2006.
Over at my other site, History Is Elementary, I have a wealth of postings regarding historical content, lesson ideas, opinions regarding education, and even some personal musings. I also maintain Georgia on My Mind, which is a website hub for Georgians who blog, contains postings regarding the state of Georgia and her history, and I organize the bi-monthly Georgia Carnival every other week. As a child of God I also blog about Biblical history, archaeology, and my own journey through Scripture at the blog Got Bible?. Finally, I’m one of the contributors to the American President's Blog.
Since 1998, I have been an educator….coming into the profession a bit late due to my job as a wife and mother and via a career as a paralegal. Once my youngest began school, I began teaching. I have taught fourth and fifth grade mainly in a departmentalized setting where students changed classes and teachers could focus on their areas of content strength. Luckily I have always had an administrator who understood at first glance that my passion was history, and it has been a joy and an honor to bring America’s story to hundreds of children west of Atlanta. I also enjoy bringing history to the world at large through my postings at History Is Elementary.
