I have truly been blessed! I am thankful for the outpouring of encouragement and support that I have felt from my community and indeed from across the state of Florida.
Yesterday, at our local school board meeting, Representative Debbie Mayfield presented me with a beautiful tribute plaque. I was honored to have Representative Mayfield as a guest at my table at the Teacher of the Year Gala in Orlando.
Thank you to everyone for your well wishes and encouraging words. Also, a special thank you to my nine year old son, Matthew for acting as my personal photographer for the event.
