THE NITTY GRITTY

HELLO

Hi. I'm Amanda...a happy wife and mom to three awesome guys. We've lived here in Fort Collins for more than 20 years and are proud to call it home. Before moving to CO, I worked at a city attorney's office, making use of my law and Master's degrees from Duke. After settling in Fort Collins, I homeschooled my three (now teenage and older) sons and was delighted to experience music classes, soccer, karate, swim team, archery, Science Olympiad, First Lego League, parkour, and climbing (not all at the same time!). From 2005-10, I was also a contributing editor for a national scrapbooking magazine, authoring a book and a couple of monthly columns. From 2009-10, I founded and ran the Good Grief Blog. I enjoy learning new things, spending time with my family, volunteering with The Matthews House, traveling and indoor rock climbing.

If you managed to read the "Be Humorous" layout below, you'll see the boys' recent responses to the "what do you want to be when you grow up" question (hey, I really should make a list just of all the different answers I've gotten over the years!). In any case, Micah, having watched a Berenstain Bears dvd earlier today that dealt with town politics, was going on about wanting to be mayor. So. I asked him if that's what he wanted to be when he grows up. His reply?

"No (indignantly). When I grow up I want to be a teenager!"

Honest. This kid. Man he's a keeper! :)
