My name is Lauren. I was born in New Jersey, grew up in West Virginia, went to college in Pennsylvania, and now live and work in North Carolina. I'm a high school teacher of the deaf and hard-of-hearing by day, a cross country coach by the afternoon, and a writer by night. I love to write about my wonderful husband on my website (Sorry James!). I love my faith, running, watching baseball, chocolate, scrapbooking, pretending I would actually do well on the Amazing Race, re-watching The Office, listening to Bobby Bones, inspiring young minds, and as of recently moming it! Being a mom to my son has been one of my greatest joys so far! I'm an aspiring author who wrote a children's book while on maternity leave. I hope you enjoy my site!  You can see some of my other work on Hubpages.
