Jean-marie's Story
I'm an Air Force brat and only child. I moved to Warner Robins, GA when I was in 6th grade and attended Rumble Junior High and Warner Robins High School. At the end of my sophomore year, my dad retired from the Air Force and we moved to Phoenix, AZ. I spent my last two years of high school at Camelback HS. Right after high school, I moved to Flagstaff and attended NAU where I met my husband of 36 years now!! We eloped the end of my sophomore year and never looked back! As much as I never wanted to marry and Air Force man, my husband joined AFROTC barely a month after we got married! Go figure. The Air Force took us to Edwards AFB; Syracuse, NY; San Antonio, TX; and finally back to CA to March AFB where we finally stopped moving. I quit college the beginning of my senior year when our first son was born and stayed home for many years to be a full-time mom. It was totally worth it - we have three awesome children: Rob, 35, an LAPD officer, Courtney, 28, a pharmacy tech, and Jonathan, 24, a video assistant on film sets. They amaze me each and every day. We also have 2 grandsons, age 6 and 4 (our oldest son's boys) along with a very talented professional photo...Expand for more
grapher daughter-in-law. In 1997 I decided it was time to go back and finish that degree I'd started so many years before. In 1999 I completed my BA in English Lit at California Baptist University in Riverside, CA. I completed my teaching credential the next year and have now been teaching high school English for 10 years. I have to laugh when I see so many of my former classmates who are already retired! I guess I'm a late bloomer - I have at least another 10 years before I can do that! A couple of years ago my husband and I decided to leave the traffic and pollution of the Southern Cali valley and moved up to Lake Arrowhead where we are loving the forest and the cooler weather. Unfortunately, I still have to drive down the hill everyday during the school year, but thank God for summers! Of course, like every other English teacher I know, I would really love to make my living writing and I am finally beginning my first novel. We'll see how it goes! I'm so grateful for the memories and the blessings of the friends I've met along the way and that includes anyone who remembers me from high school. Drop me a line and let me know how your life has unfolded.
