I started kindergarten, I remember being super excited about storytime.
It was in the first grade, that I remember reading the story about Jack and Jill.
In the second grade, I remember being assessed on reading skills. I remember being very upset, because, some of the kids from my class were put in other classes.
In third grade, one of my favorite teachers, introduce us to her favorite song by Willie Nelson. I remember reading the lyrics on the album cover everyday.
My tenth grade English literature, I was inspired by the words of Emerson.
College opened my ears to spoken words and poetry from greats such as Langston Hughes.
It was this year, I birthed my first and only. I've been reading and singing to him since the moment I find out of his arrival.
Grad school is when I realized, I actually like to write.
Now, I've found myself in the classroom teaching children to read.
