I am a forty-something mom/English teacher on leave married to my best friend, Richard. Isabel joined our family, which includes three cats--Crazy, Mocha, and Cookie--on May 6, 2008. After an agonizing three year wait, Madeleine finally became a part of our clan on June 29, 2009.
For each new morning with its light, For rest and shelter of the night, For health and food, for love and friends, For everything Thy goodness sends. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
