About Me
Name: Chelle Y.

I am a mother of one beautiful six year old boy, and I am a Die-hard Oakland A's fan. I was a history and algebra teacher for nine years before my son came into my life, then became a stay-at-home mom. That has been one of my greatest joys.

I love to play the piano and now I teach other children how to play piano too.

  35. Isn’t it wonderful to take time for gratitude? One of the things I do on my blog is to post a daily inspiration – and gratitude is often a subject. An “attitude of gratitude” is oh, so important.
