How Many Children Do You Have?

A little about yourself...
I "retired" from School Social Work 15 years ago to raise my 2 kids. They are ready for me to leave the nest now... I recently returned to the public schools when I accepted a paraprofessional position with Jefferson School in Maplewood. I am thoroughly enjoying being in the classroom and providing direct service to the students as well as having the time to continue to cheer my daughter on at her various sports games in the afterschool hours.

When I am not working outside the home, I spend considerable time running a soccer program for 4 and 5 year olds as well as performing other volunteer activities for the Livingston Soccer Club. Throughout my hiatus from the world of paid work, I spent time playing backgammon with a Senior who does not frequently leave her house. I really miss the time we spent together and am trying to find a way to fit this relationship back into my schedule.

I enjoy crossword puzzles and reading police procedurals, pulp fiction and legal thrillers (none of that romance genre for me, thank you very much). I'm a Yankee and Devils fan, and to this day, consider myself a tom-boy.

My son is 20, has Asperger's Syndrome, and is muddling his way through Centenary College and trying to work part-time. He's a funny kid (odd for an Aspie) and has a great heart - but when he's frustrated (which is often) his potty mouth gets in the way of people being able to see his goodness and smarts. My daughter is almost 17 (get off the road people!), plays soccer and lacrosse for LHS, works at Gesher Summer Program and as a travel soccer referee, and has begun the search for college admission. She wants to be a jewelry designer. My husband works for Citi so he puts in incredibly long hours and lives with the stress of working in the financial industry. My extended family lives nearby so I enjoy a wonderful support system; I'm happy to say that my sisters really are my best friends!

I'm excited to "meet" other moms and network.
