I haven’t had a lot of time during the holidays to come on here and update the blog, been busy with 3 kids, school ending for the semester, and of course working full time!
I do have something exciting that I do want to share though. Normally, I do pretty good in school, currently at Grand Valley State University in Allendale, Michigan. This semester though, I managed to ALMOST get on the Presidents List. By ALMOST I mean I was off by 0.075 GPA. I had a 3.925 GPA this semester and couldn’t believe how bummed I was when I finally was able to see my grades and see that I was off by that tiny amount.
I may have mentioned before that I took 4 classes, I had a lot of fun, met some great new people and was able to get involved with the Court Appointed Special Advocates of Kent County, Michigan. I am so proud to be a part of the CASA team here in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I will be adding a photo later of myself and my daughter, who came with me to the swearing in ceremony. My other 2 kids came too, but they didn’t want their pictures taken in front of everyone, so we got some outside of the court room.
I haven’t yet had the chance to look over any cases, I think I’ll be starting that in the first week of the new year. I am really looking forward to being the voice of a child or children and helping them get the things they need and be a support for them. We need more volunteers to work with kids on this level, so if you’re interested, please reach out to me! CASA is not just in Michigan, it’s in a lot of other states, and I believe it’s nation wide.
So, this is my short update on my life. I am going to be starting a pod cast very soon, I’m hoping to start that on the 4th of January. I’ll be posting info on that soon too! I hope everyone had a great Christmas! Take Care!
