What are you proudest of in your life?

I am proudest of my three wonderful children. Their innocence, simple joys and hilarious antics make every day special.

Where is your favourite place to be?

I enjoy the tranquility when I escape to my garden but what I enjoy the most is seeing my fruits and vegetables growing.

What is your biggest dream?

To make a difference in the life of a child each and every day!

If the story of YOU became a movie, how would the movie end?

With a "happily ever after" of course... what else?

If you could design a t-shirt, what would you draw or write on it?

I can't draw so I would write. I would write, ‘Have you hugged your dentist today?’ or "got floss?'
