Carrie Baughcum

Three years ago my friend thought it would be a great idea to start a blog together. With a deep breath and fear that all the weirdos in the world would start stalking me or come to my house and kidnap my children we started blogging together and Laverne was born. Under this new found anonymity I began to write as Laverne. The more I wrote, the more people I met. The more wonderful, kind and amazingly caring people I met the braver I got. The braver I got the more confident I became…and suddenly I had found a voice I never knew I had.

Today I proudly introduce myself as Carrie. A mom, wife, Special Education teacher and woman who has bravely stepped out from her anonymity and is now the proud author of carriebaughcum.com. Here I sling words, illustrate, create and share my deep passion for empowering all children to learn as a Special Education teacher, learning enthusiast and idea sharer. My life is ridiculously heck awesome because of the voice I found, enriched by the incredible people I have met blogging and to date I have not been stalked and my children have not been kidnapped.

Hold on tight to your chairs kids...this is going to be fun!
