TELL ME ABOUT YOU AND YOUR FAMILY

My name is Kathryn, wife to my husband Daniel of 16 years, and mom to three beautiful kids ages 12, 10, and 8. We have had a journey that has been different from others. My husband is a pilot, and I have been both a public educator and a homeschool mom. I taught the foundations of learning for kids in their formative years and received my masters in curriculum and instruction during this time. For a time, I was called back to the classroom to love on the community of students and am now a homeschool mom.
