Sometimes you just gotta take time to reflect and appreciate the fact that you chose J🌞Y.
Choosing J🌞Y doesn’t mean that hard things in life don’t come. It doesn’t mean that grief doesn’t show up in the most inopportune time. It doesn’t mean that life and the changes in life doesn’t happen. It means that in spite of it all, I try to find the J🌞Y. I try to focus on my blessings. I’m proud of myself for choosing J🌞Y & I’m proud of myself for living and sitting in the hard moments too.

Hello fellow teachers and friends! I began teaching in 2001. It is amazing to think that! I can't believe that I have taught so many grade levels and facilitated learning for teachers for so many years! My teaching began in South Carolina, then Virginia and the now in Georgia. My 21 years in teaching and education have taught me a lot about relationship building, authentic teaching and learning, life long learning and the importance of caring for self. I truly feel that those years upped my level of teaching in ways that I never could have imagined! My love is literacy and infusing diverse books in all we do. I am back in the classroom and I am also an Instructional Coach! I was an Instructional Coach in schools for 5 years and 2 years+ now as a consultant. I’ve written two books too! (If you would love to support there is a link in my blog) This blog is my journey. Hopefully you will stick with me!
