About Me

I am a 41 year old professional female. I live in Colorado. I am married to my husband of 10 years and we have many furry friends. No children. I love children as I work as a speech language pathologist and treat a number of special children. I live on a 10 acre farm where my husband and I raise birds of all kinds and provide animal rehabilitation to the best of our abilities. We have 4 dogs, 7 cats, 12 peacocks, 100 chickens, 10 pheasants and a few more little critters.

Favorite Books

I love reading many kinds of books. Christian fiction and non-fiction are some of my favorites; I like the authors Francine Rivers, Liz Curtis Higgs.

I love mystery books and historical fiction and non-fiction.

Children´s literature. I collect children´s books, especially the classics; anything Laura Ingalls Wilder, Nancy Drew. I love all Eric Carle books, Margaret Wise Brown- Goodnight Moon, Paul Galdone, C.S. Lewis, Virginia Lee Burton - The Little House, wordless books. Children's literature is the backbone of my therapy to teach language, basic concepts, grammar and syntax and speech sounds. Kids love this especially when we tie in craft activities and games related to the story.

Comment: Thank you so much for the wonderful bookmarks :)! They are both so beautiful and you´ve made such an effort with the handmade one. It´s neatly made, which I appreciate very much. You really made my day. Hugs and best wishes!
Response: Oh I'm so glad you liked it! I never made a bookmark before, so I got out my scrapbooking paper, stickers and ribbons and viola! I used the laminator at work to seal it. It was quite fun I must say. Now I'd like to join another bookmark swap but haven't researched any going on yet. Thanks for the great feedback and the heart. Best wishes to you as well.
