My favorite movie quote:

These are simple reminders of how to adjust my attitude during all of life’s ups and downs.

 

Some of my favorite hobbies include:

Hiking, reading, traveling, and playing with my dogs! 

 

My favorite school memory as a student is:

My fourth-grade teacher reading “The Giving Tree” by Shel Silverstein to our class.  This is still one of my favorites, and I begin each school year by reading it to my class.
