My husband and I have been married for over 30 years. Together, we raised one son and three daughters, who have brought us much joy.
I spent over a decade as a stay-at-home Mother, where I learned the overwhelming challenges and incredible bliss of Mothering.
​
Now, we have three grandsons and five granddaughters. I love being a grandma!

Joy and Family
Having loving relationships in families is what it's all about. The goal is to have as much fulfillment in our human relationships as possible, and I believe it is within reach.
When you work to understand yourself, you are better able to connect with those around you to support and uplift each other.
