In August 2007, two pivotal events happened in the same week. My first collection of poems was released (on August 21 to be exact), and I officially started homeschooling my three sons. I remember feeling the shift from what I always wanted and thought I would be doing--writing--to what I never wanted or intended to be doing--educating my own children full-time. While I still believed I was called to be a writer, I also believed I was called to set my own dreams aside for the benefit of my family.
