My Days...My Writings (Children's Journals)
Although I grew up in Iowa, my family and I have lived in northern Wisconsin for many years. I have a B.A. and M.A. in education and am just retiring after teaching elementary students for 30 years. During this time I encouraged students to record their thoughts and memories in journals.My Husband and I have recently started a real estate appraisal business, which we really enjoy because we can work together and have our office at home.We have two grown sons. They are both graduating from college this spring-one as a pilot in commercial aviation, and one as a research chemist.Because we have been fortunate to live in a beautiful area of the woods and lakes, our familys activities and hobbies have centered around the outdoors. The time we spend with our family and friends at our lake cottage is very precious to us. I stay there most of the summer, taking daily walks and swims with my German Shepherd, boating, reading on the dock and working on my flower and herb gardens.
