I'm a public school kindergarten teacher in WV. I have four children of my own. Three are raised and through college. I am a single mother raising a 16 year old alone.
I am 58. I have two precious grandsons (age 5 and 14 months). I have a Master's Degree from West Virginia University. I've been teaching for 34 years. These days I train student teachers and work to make ends meet. I have been supporting Obama since before the Primaries. It has been very exciting. I've never been political before. I have enjoyed listening to Obama's speeches. My daughter (16) and I were in Disney World one Summer and went to see the Exhibit of Presidents. The first thing she said to me was I can't wait to see Obama become President. He belongs here with President Lincoln. I was amazed to hear her say that. The campaign wouldn't have been interesting without Obama. He is intelligent, verbal, and reminds me of great leaders during my youth. My daughter and I went to hear him before he became President. It was a special time I will treasure forever. I believe with all my heart that he will become one of the best Presidents we ever had.
