About Me
I was born in Marlinton, WV and spent most of my childhood there. After the 85' flood my family moved to Maryland where we lived for 3 years. In 1991 my family moved back to WV and I ultimately ended up finishing school in the same county that I started at. I met my husband in 1992 and we were married the following year. We have 5 children and live on a beautiful farm in southern Pocahontas County. I started teaching 13 years ago.

Darlene,
ReplyDeleteYou included what I consider a wonderful and powerful inspiration quote, "She believe she could, so she did." It is a great reminder!
Bonus points in my book for including a scenic photograph of West Virginia hills!
I loved your video! Your family is beautiful, adventurous, and happy, what a legacy. Thank you for sharing the inspirational quotes as well. I have never been to Pocahontas county, but if those are pictures of it, I sure should visit!
ReplyDeleteDarelene! I love the Pocahontas region and I'm a little jealous that you get to be on a farm in that area. I feel that your video shows a strong connection to family and the land, qualities that I think are particularly strong in our state. Hopefully this winter isn't too crazy for you down there!
ReplyDeleteAwesome video, looks like you live a pretty adventurous life and care a lot about your children.
