...that when others speak ill of you, no one will believe them."  My mother told me that and it's always stuck.  It's the motto that I try to live my life by.  I have no control over what other people think, feel or say about me, ultimately, but the way I live my life can definitely be a big influence on those things!  So I try to do my best, even though I fall short (hahaha) a lot.  (I laugh because I'm pretty LITERALLY short...5'1.75" and NOT growing :P).  Okay, so I am in my 20's and am a kindergarten teacher in a dual-language program...a job that I LOVE because I have absolutely AMAZING kids that I get to teach, learn from and fall in love with every single day, over and over again.  It's awesome.  :)  I graduated from Texas A&M University (WHOOP!) in December 2005 with a Bachelor's degree in Bilingual Education (essentially).  I met the most incredible man last August...Fernando...a man that I thank God for every day.  He isn't perfect...but he's perfect for me.  He is smart, kind, compassionate, hard-working, FUNNY, sweet, sincere...and he loves and respects me.  He inspires me and comforts me and also tells me like it is when I need to hear it.  We got engaged on November 22, 2007 (Thanksgiving day!!) and were married on April 30, 2009!!!!  Let's see....what else?  Ah, recreation:  I'm a HUGE bookworm...I devour books!  I also love to solve logic problems and visual puzzles.  Sometimes I read the dictionary for fun...I'm kind of a word aficionado.  :P  But I also love a good game of volleyball...I could play volleyball all day long (nowadays with a much needed knee brace...bah!) and also enjoy softball.  I love to WATCH soccer and, of course, Texas Aggie football!!!  Whatever the scoreboard says, we always win in spirit!  Whoop!  I have two cats: Munchkin and Bubba.  I love my boys and their crazy cat antics.  :)  Anyway, that's enough for now.  You'll learn more about me along the way, I'm sure.  Tootles!! :)
