Favorite Quote: “If a man hasn’t made a difference in life, than he hasn’t really been here at all.” - Roberto Clemente
My daughter, Shannon, posed the question what do you have to offer that would make anyone want to read your blog? Obviously, I raised a smart young woman. Don’t you hate it when your kids are right? So besides being a wife, mother of five, and friend, what sets me apart? I am French Canadian and English. That means I can be emotional and stubborn all at once. I have always had an “itch” for education and am still taking online courses. More about that in a future blog. I have had more than my share of experiences, both good and bad, in my lifetime. After two of my sons died I went totally out of my comfort zone, of being a teacher and principal, to writing a program so that teens and young adults could have their citations withdrawn and expunged after making senseless and careless mistakes. (Didn't we all do that at one time or another?) Echo, Every Challenge Has Options, has been in existence for twelve years. Since that time only twelve students went back to court again. Parents are thrilled for the changes they have seen in their kids.
Please join me.
