Biggest accomplishment:

My proudest accomplishment is being a mother. I am a mother not only to my two beautiful children to whom I have given life and raised – but I have been a “mom” to so many others in my lifetime as well through teaching, scouting, my church, and my neighborhood. God has blessed me with so many wonderful people who call me “mom.” I have loved each one and wouldn’t trade any moments with any of them! And now, I am blessed beyond measure to be a grandmother to Melody and Malicai.
