A little bit about me

I am a mother of one 14 year old (sassy) girl. I love arts and crafts, nature, reading (and writing!) children's books. Holistic practices such as herbal remedies, nutrition and exercise are important to me.
I am a housekeeper and artist (painter) by trade. I belive in looking for the best in others. My disciplinary style is communication/intervention/de-escelation by communicating what is expected of the child as well as asking the child to express their needs or feelings.
