About Me

I'm a momma, just trying to make sense of all the changes, cheerios, and surprises that Motherhood, wife-hood, and life has in store.  I'm an Animal Science Biology graduate from the University of Florida. After graduating I got an amazing opportunity to serve as an Agriculture Peace Corps Volunteer in Panama.There was where I started to blog, LIFE IS CALLING, and haven't stopped since It was definitely a life changing experience for more reasons than one. 
"I’ve been thinking a lot about this blog entry. The time since my last blog entry has been full of LIFE CHANGING EVENTS to say the least.
Now more than ever, I understand the importance of living the moment. In one minute, everything in my life and in the lives of those around me changed. Peace Corps’ slogan is Life is Calling…How far are you willing to go to make a difference? Well I did my best to find out. In that search, I found I was willing to leave everyone I loved and everything familiar to me behind in the hopes that I could change a couple lives and along the way experience something completely different, exciting, and self-fulfilling.
Though I can’t continue my service, Life is still calling …this time however, its asking how far I’m willing to go to make a difference in the life of one little boy, my own baby boy (and Peter’s too)"

Now am here in LA where I am a professional dabbler as I like to call it; I am a BootCamp4Moms Instructorwriter, teacher, wife, as well as thehappy mom of an adorable Baby Boywho is growing up too fast. Everyday is an adventure and I try to capture those special moments and overcome those stressful ones. I love sharing ideas, experiences, and tips that I've learned along the way with friends and other readers through my blogging and friendships =).



I'm also keeping busy writing/illustrating my FIRST CHILDREN'S BOOK!
