I retired on 6/1/19 from the federal government (United States District Court) after 37 years of service. I am 1 of 10 children (70 nieces and nephews) and I have raised 3 children and 2 step children. I also have 2 grandchildren. I love kids especially little ones. I have taken care many family members over the years, including my mother, my father, my father in law, and siblings. My mother had COPD and my father and three of my brothers had cancer. I also have 3 dogs and thoroughly enjoy most animals. I am looking to occupy some of my free time and I would thoroughly enjoy spending it with children or adults in need of my care.
