I am a work-at-home mom with four kids (ages 15, 13, 11, and 7). We live on campus at Baylor School, where my husband teaches. After living in Ohio, Indiana, and Virginia, Tennessee is home and has been for 19+ years. After years of having babies and preschoolers at home, I sent my youngest to school, and now spend my time working part-time for an online entrepreneur ... and picking up sick kids from school.
