Kelly's Story

When I left Franklin, the Saturday after I graduated, I moved to Dallas. I landed a job at a Fortune 500 company & started working on Monday. I met my children's father at that company, and we married when I turned 20. We had three great boys together, James, born in '89, Wade, born in 91, and Alex, born in '93. Unfortunately, my boys' father loved cocaine more than he loved me, so we divorced. This was a sad time, but then I met my beloved, Gary. Gary and I have been married since 1996, and though marriage isn't always fun nor easy, we have endeavored to persevere and love each other very much. We have a good life together and serve and love the Lord. I'm very proud of my boys. They are smart, sweet, little nerds - yes, they know they're nerds and quite proud of it. They entertain me to no end with their antics and teasing. My life changed when they all grew taller than me, which didn't take too awfully long. I get lots of sweet little pats on the head when I'm fussing at them for something, and this can get my temper boiling. :-) After Alex started school, so did I. I earned a degree in English and teach Pre-AP English & ESL (English as a Second language) at...Expand for more
Royse City Middle School in Royse City, Texas. (My e-mail is on the Royse City ISD web page, just look under middle school staff.) I feel as though I have the best job at my school. I am blessed; however, I write this right before school starts, and I am refreshed and ready to stop being lazy and get back to school to meet my new "kids." :-) I am a chronic decorator and drive my family crazy with my creative whims - pray for Gary because I can't stop! At least he's usually safe during the school year since I'm too tired to tear up too much as I've gotten older; however, during breaks and the summer, anything is fair game to be painted, "improved," or changed completely. Perhaps I should include some of my work under my pictures - tomorrow! :-) I suppose after you turn 40 (ouch!!), one seems to get nostalgic and wants to reconnect with people from the past. I am now 3 classes and my paper away from obtaining my master's degree in English! By the way, Dianne (Palasota) Teafatiller and I are still friends and keep in touch. She and her sweet family, 4 children and a terrific husband, just moved to Singapore to work in a Christian school. They are amazing people.
