About Me

Hi, I'm Linda--wife to Ron, mom to two wonderful, grown daughters (Jana and Callie), three step-children, and Mimi/Lovey to five of the most amazing little ones  you ever met.   I "inherited" three of those littles when Ron and I got married in 2013 and recently added two more to the clan, via my own daughters.  I am a preschool special education teacher who is passionate about the work I do with young children, but I am also looking forward to the retirement (which isn't too far away) so that I can have more time to be with family, to explore my creativity further and to do some volunteer work that my schedule has not previously allowed.

This blog is all about the things I love---my family, my friends, my church, my travel and my hobbies.  


I grew up sewing, drawing and crafting and my love for all things creative has just gotten stronger and stronger over the years. When my girls were little, I had the privilege of staying home with them for several years and I had a small sewing business to help make ends meet. The name of my business---Mommy's Treasures!


Over the years, I've learned so much about all different kinds of art and crafts, but that has only made me hungrier to learn to do more!  Most recently, I have been learning photography, so you'll be seeing my photos (and hopefully my progress) on the blog as well.   

Since I've discovered it is much more fun to make a mess than to clean it up, my house is generally cluttered with paper, fabric, thread or some sort of DIY project. If you don't mind the mess, you're welcome to scoot the things over and have a seat on my couch while we visit.


Thanks for stopping by. Feel free to leave me a comment when you can.
