English II: Editing Text I was born in a small town in Oxford

Michigan but I moved to Chicago after I graduated from college I got a job at Fenger High School and started teaching English to 9th and 10th graders. I love my job; it never gets boring or uninteresting. Everyday is a new experience. During my fifth year of teaching and educating I had a son named Jacobi. He was the cutest thing I had ever seen and I knew that motherhood was going to change my life for the better. Now my son is almost four and goes to preschool. Life goes by quickly so I try and enjoy every moment.
