About Me |
I'm a wife, a homeschool mom, and a proud army mom.
My oldest son, Michael, is a U.S. soldier serving in Iraq.
I have three children living at home. Emily, 17 years old, is my best girlfriend and such a joy. Joshua is an easy going and fun 8 year old, and Annabelle, at age 6, is still my little bundle of joy.
I have been homeschooling for 14 years.
I am blessed. |

Favorite Quote:
"Perhaps you think you are being treated unfairly?"
Darth Vader
This line comes in handy in my job as Darth Mom.
|
Rules I live by:
"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." |
Interests & Hobbies:
I love to read.
In the summer I like to hike and camp and do anything outdoors.
I like to play with my family. Sometimes it's a new X-Box game, sometimes it's hiking, or maybe watching the kids run through the sprinklers.
I love all things Star Wars! |
TV Shows:
The Office
, |
Favorite Music & Bands:
I like a little bit of this and a little bit of that. The CD's I actually buy, because I know I will not get sick of them and I will like almost if not all of the songs included, are Enya's.
My song for my husband is Aretha Franklin's "Natural Woman".
"Our Song" is "Still the One" by Shania Twain.
Love Sarah McLachlan.
My favorite adrenaline pumping songs are "Crumbling Down" by John Mellencamp and Pat Benatar's "Heart Breaker". I adore old hymns and wish I could hear more of them. The best song ever written, in my opinion, is Handel's Hallelujah Chorus. |
Favorite Movies:
I am a huge Star Wars fan. In fact, I wish my life had a John William's soundtrack!
For my birthday my children bought me a Darth Vader helmet. Now I can pretend to be "Darth Mom"
Other movies I love:
Lord of the Rings Trilogy
Napoleon Dynamite
Radio
My Fair Lady
A Beautiful Mind
Most anything starring Marilyn Monroe, especially, "How to Marry a Millionaire". |
Favorite People You Know:
My favorite people are the ones in my family... My husband-the love of my life, my children, my cats (okay my daughter pointed out that technically, the cats are not people) my brother and his family, my parents, Karen Botker and Kety. |
Favorite Celebrities:
I like celebrities who have actually done something useful with their lives, who live lives of integrity rather than scandal, and who show generosity and compassion for humankind. People like:
Kurt Warner
Charleton Heston
Bono
Will Smith

Favorite Reads:
Lord of the Rings; J.R.R. Tolkein
At Home in Mitford Series; Jan Karon
The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency Series: Alexander McCall Smith
The Magician's Nephew; C.S. Lewis
Gone With the Wind; Margaret Mitchell
Most of Ted Dekker's Books
Alison Weir's History Books (The Six Wives of Henry VIII et. al.)
I love fantasy and "Arena" by Karen Hancock is one of the best newer books in that genre.
I've just picked up Timothy Zahn's Thrawn series and am reading that right now. |
