I live in Portage with my family.  I have been married for almost 21 years and have 3 children.  My husband, Mike, is a Pittsburgh Pirates fan.  Actually, he likes ALL Pittsburgh teams.  He loves to read just like I do!  My son, Matthew, is going to be a sophomore at IUN this year!  He is studying computer forensic science.  He started swimming when he was seven years old and is now one of the coaches for the Portage Porpoise swim team.  He likes to read and hunt for Pokémon!  He also likes to play the game Magic with his dad.  My daughter, Taylor, is going to be a senior in high school.  She is very active in her youth group, loves to read, and loves to listen to music.  I think she may be a movie critic because she likes to compare the books to all the movies she watches.  She wants to go to college to be an English teacher.  She also loves to hunt for Pokémon!  My youngest daughter, Emily, is starting high school this year.  I’m pretty sure I’m more nervous than she is.  She has been in ballet for two years, was on a gymnastics team for many years and is planning to participate in high school gymnastics.  We also have a dog.  Her name is Chelsea.  She is a Border collie and Husky mix.  I can’t wait to get to know each of you!
