I started first grade as a five year old. Because there were not enough children for kindergarten and first grade, I was excited because now I could learn to read and write.My father was a gold miner so we moved to many camps. To keep busy I spent a lot of time at the local library and checking out books. I won a writing contest when I was in the seventh grade. the subjects were a rose, a piece of broken glass, or a pair of jeans. I choose to write about the pair of jeans. I had a passion for writing stories. Now I could write my own story.My husband and I raised three children in the Pacific Northwest. We have many grandchildren and great-grandchildren who gives me inspiration.view less
