From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I am currently a stay-at-home mom with my first baby who was born in November 2011. Prior to my maternity leave, I was teaching grade 5/6 French Immersion. I live in Saskatchewan, Canada.

Why Wikipedia?[edit]

I love the written word. While in university, I devoted a lot of time to my own essays and editing essays written by friends and roommates. I am the type of person who will debate over the use of a single word in a phrase because of its impact on the tone or connotation. I miss that. My opportunities to edit at a higher level become fewer and further between as I get further from my university days -I occasionally get to edit for my youngest brother who is in his second year. Correcting elementary students' writing isn't the same. Moreover, being a stay-at-home mom isn't the most intellectually challenging project I've ever undertaken (challenging in many other ways, but I wouldn't say intellectually!) so I was looking for an outlet to keep my brain a bit sharper.
