About Me

I am the luckiest person I know ... I go to the greatest job in the world every day. I am a teacher of children who "fill my bucket" daily with love, enthusiasm, and energy. I am blessed to spend time with creative kids who inspire me to step outside the box and bend the rules when it makes sense.

Favorite Books

Historical fiction is probably my favourite genre of adult literature. I love being transported to another time and place.

As a teacher, I am also passionate about quality children's literature. Sophisticated picture books ... poetry ... ABC books ... graphic novels ... information books. Everything has a place in my classroom library.

Favourites

Favourite colour .... fresh spring green

Favourite animal ... lanky giraffes

Favourite number ... 3

Favourite dessert ... ice cream

Favorite Television

I'm a reality show junkie! Survivor, American Idol, Big Brother, and Amazing Race are all favourites.

Favorite Movies

Not a big movie fan. I watch action/adventure movies .... mostly because my husband is watching them and I share the space.

Favorite Crafts

It's not really a craft I suppose, but I've recently discovered photography. New camera in hand, I'm always out looking for a great shot.

Comment: Thank you, Deluca, we really enjoyed your ATC's. Torii showed them, along with others she and I have received, at her school's "Explore Art" night yesterday evening. Her favorite is the duct tape card, mine is the mustache man with the pink hair! We both liked the starry-eyed snowman :)

Comment: What a dreamy feel this card has! The slanted text, the misty look of the tree, the smudgy hints of colour ... I love it, a wonderful addition to my collection!

Hello Sylvia,

I received your "E Animal ATC" Swap on Monday. What a treat I received from you. I not only received a beautiful purple elephant, but I received the gift of your drawing. I am so excited to add this to my animal ATCs as it will be such a beautiful addition. Thank you for your great ATC. Hope we get to swap together again.

Fondly, Barb
