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.

Happy Monday to you!! Today's quote:

If we are facing in the right direction, all we have to do is keep on walking. –Zen proverb

Just felt the need to take a moment here and express my gratitude for how awesome my life is. Feeling pretty darn good about the direction our life is heading right now as a family. So very blessed. I know that I still complain from time to time and that there’s plenty left to figure out and that there will be more bumps along the way. But. I’m encouraged by the knowledge that we’re on the right path for us. Gonna just keep on going…

No, no particular news or anything like that. Just happy today. ;)
