I was the big sister in my family;I took care of my younger siblings. I felt a huge sense of responsibility at a young age. I could feel people's need and many times took this upon my inner self. It's what I've always been. In college I was the highest recommended person/student by the Job Placement Office at Millsaps College. During that time I worked for many incredible people. I was a live-in sitter for a Controller for Xerox. I lived in with Professor Fagan's mother-in-law while he taught in Europe for the summer. I lived in with a wealthy elderly lady with diabetes. I sat with several elderly ladies. I also worked at the Millsaps Preschool and my first job after I graduated from college. I have worked with hundreds of children and taken care of many children. I have voluntarily kept young children in church nurseries ,taught Sunday Read more School. I taught elementary school for 3 years and taught Jr. High and High School SPED for one year. I also took care of my elderly grandmother in my home for one year. I am a mother of five children;four of my children are grown and I have one child attending Kosciusko Junior High.
