I strive to stand for what I believe is right and to stand up for those who can't voice their own opinions. I strive to advocate for children, especially those who need a little extra love. ]]> 2017-09-05 14:55:02 UTC https://padlet.com/elessig9399/sbnbb237fuzm/wish/184782251 elessig9399 https://padlet.com/elessig9399/sbnbb237fuzm/wish/184786842 Family is very important to my immediate family is my anchor. I find that discussing important decisions with them helps me and they have supported me through any decision I have made. ]]> 2017-09-05 15:05:29 UTC https://padlet.com/elessig9399/sbnbb237fuzm/wish/184786842 elessig9399 https://padlet.com/elessig9399/sbnbb237fuzm/wish/184788816 I seek to put passion into everything I do. My true life passion is working with children and I am blessed to be able to fulfill this passion everyday by working at Grace Early Learning Center and nannying 3 children I absolute adore.

I speak some German and their culture is very important to me. My father's parents are Pennsylvania Dutch. We eat tons of Dutch and German foods at home and my Mommom speaks PA Dutch to us. This is a picture of Schnitzel with spaetzle and red cabbage, a typical German meal we eat at home. ]]> 2017-09-05 15:30:54 UTC https://padlet.com/elessig9399/sbnbb237fuzm/wish/184799052 elessig9399 https://padlet.com/elessig9399/sbnbb237fuzm/wish/184804031 My family always sits down to eat together for dinner at the table every night, this is something my parents believed was important for my sister and I to do and for us to do as a family. Dinner is always a time where we can have family discussions and connect. We also celebrate Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, and Halloween as well. My favorite holiday is Halloween, I love to dress up and have fun. ]]> 2017-09-05 15:39:45 UTC https://padlet.com/elessig9399/sbnbb237fuzm/wish/184804031 elessig9399 https://padlet.com/elessig9399/sbnbb237fuzm/wish/184806090 My room is my safe haven and the place I probably spend most of my time. It is separate from the rest of the house and I enjoy going there to decompress and relax. I enjoy coloring and reading, both of these things help me to destress, regain focus, and escape my sometimes hectic life. ]]> 2017-09-05 15:43:32 UTC https://padlet.com/elessig9399/sbnbb237fuzm/wish/184806090 elessig9399 https://padlet.com/elessig9399/sbnbb237fuzm/wish/184808088 I live by the golden rule "Do to others what you want them to do to you." I believe it is important to take into consideration another person's feelings before speaking or acting. I believe in karma and believe that good actions bring good things to you. ]]> 2017-09-05 15:47:23 UTC https://padlet.com/elessig9399/sbnbb237fuzm/wish/184808088 elessig9399 https://padlet.com/elessig9399/sbnbb237fuzm/wish/184809488 Your choices mold who you are]]> 2017-09-05 15:50:19 UTC https://padlet.com/elessig9399/sbnbb237fuzm/wish/184809488 elessig9399 https://padlet.com/elessig9399/sbnbb237fuzm/wish/184809584 I believe that working with children is the most rewarding job. You watch children grow physically, mentally, and emotionally over 9 months, and not only are you watching that growth you are also facilitating it. The precious minds of children are so fascinating and I've found myself learning new things from them and how to be more open. ]]> 2017-09-05 15:50:34 UTC https://padlet.com/elessig9399/sbnbb237fuzm/wish/184809584
