All About Amy

I am a single woman hoping to adopt a baby. I have spent my life around children. As a teenager I helped my mom when she had a home daycare. I taught Sunday School and directed children’s choirs when I was in college. Once I became a teacher I have worked with children on a daily basis, ages 4-10.  I am currently a reading intervention teacher. I spend lots of my free time now providing care for my two great nieces while their parents are working. Summer provides a great time for me to bond with them.  One was born in January 2023 and the other in April 2023.

I have varied interests from athletics to music to outdoor activities to cooking. I am an avid baseball watcher, volleyball/pickleball player and enjoy participating in 5Ks. I have played the piano since I was 8 and often play for community and church events. I have been in a number of bands, musicals and shows. Recently I have begun singing after getting up the nerve to take voice lessons! I love doing anything outdoors - swimming, hiking, gardening. Cooking was something my mother worked very hard to instill in me. While most people see it as a chore I see it as a way to relax after a day of work. I love to experiment with new recipes!

I spend a lot of time with my 10 year old Cavachon. She is my current baby that gets a lot of my attention! She is usually at my feet, on my lap or next to me no matter what I’m doing. 

I love old tv shows so if you ask me about current ones I’m usually lost! I read mysteries constantly, with James Patterson being my favorite author. 

I enjoy traveling to warm places! I have seen many Broadway musicals and hope to see many more. I love Pentatonix and can quote The Golden Girls episodes in regular conversation.
