About Me

I'm Miranda, from Idaho.  I'm a wife, step-mom, sister, daughter, auntie, friend, wine-lover, runner, work-out-freak, and a fanatic about doing the right thing because it's the right thing to do.  I work with kids who have done terrible things and made terrible choices, and everyday I make myself realize that they, themselves, are not terrible kids. 

I want to make a difference.  I want kids to know they can make a difference in a positive manner. 

I want parents to love their kids and show it by being good parents.  I want kids to grow up in homes where they know their parents truly love them. 

I'm a guitar player and a singer, but I don't sing karaoke. 

I'm a runner and love the feeling of accomplishment when I finish a long distance, but I don't run under 10:00/mile on most days.  I've decided that it doesn't matter how fast I run as long as I get out there and try to accomplish a goal.  I've realized that, like any day of the week, some runs will be terrible and other runs will be amazing, but I'm not going to stop running just because of a bad run, just like I'm not going to stop living just because I've had a bad day.
