About Laurie June 29, 2007

I am a happily married, proud mother of 3 young adults, living in the suburbs and  working full time as a long-term   librarian in public schools in metro Richmond.

Thanks to a good friend, former neighbor, knitting tutor and inspirational creative person, I began blogging in July 2007.  I have revamped this site numerous times and plan to get back on track with learning new technology in the process of having fun writing and sharing.

 Two of our young adults have finished college and live out of state in the central time zone.  Our youngest child was born at home on purpose with a midwife.  My reading interests vary widely and I will share books on topics from midwifery fiction to Alaska.  I read a lot of Children’s Literature and also enjoy Young Adult Literature.
