People ask me if I ever see my father and I say yes, because he puts in the effort. He calls all the time to tell us he's proud of us.

My dad saw my husband's boss at a conference, and he said to stop paying my husband until we produce children.

I like to go to bed early.

I hope to work with kids any way possible.

I hope to continue writing. I hope to continue teaching.

I'm aware that not all kids can pick up and fly to Panama. I'm very lucky.

I hope to focus on what I'm passionate about because I think I'd do them best job on them - education, urban education, women and children's issues and literacy.
