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.

(Sorry for the MIA-ness...blog's just gonna have to take a backseat this month...well, this week and next in particular, as I try to get a grip on all things holiday. :) After that, the hope is that I'll have enough out of the way that I can enjoy the season and share here more, lol. Don't worry. I'm keeping track of things that have been going on here...will update when I can.)

Just posted over on the Ormolu blog. Go check it out! :)

(And, as a follow up...ended up having to give Micah another dose of the steroids this morning. Haven't ever had to give him more than the one dose, so let's hope this does the trick. He seems to be on the mend now, though...knock on wood. Nathan thinks it's wrong that I keep laughing when I hear Micah talk. His little raspy voice is just so dang adorable!)
