Well in first place, I am a mom of 3: two girls and a boy, and I have pictures in my profile of them. In second place, I am a high school teacher of Portuguese. I have been doing it for 9 years now and although I absolutely LOVE my job, I am taking a year sabbatical to finish my Master's Degree. The few things I don't like about my teaching job are: mornings, paperwork and discipline issues. Otherwise, I feel good about what I am doing, I enjoy learning from my students as much as I enjoy teaching them. I don't only teach about Portuguese language and culture.. I also am a mom, therapist, guidance counselor, friend, mentor, role model, I teach social skills, respect for others, making good decisions as opposed to bad, and so much more. Besides that, I am a daughter, sister, wife, mom, friend, pet owner (of many, a dog and 2 cats) and a nature lover. My family is the most important thing to me. I also love learning about new religions and have considered myself following the Pagan path for the last 5 years or so. I have many beliefs, and love to talk about them. Want to be friends?
