Kristin--My Sparkling Gem

Matt says, "Kristin has so much love to give a child. She's a great listener, so our child will feel important and understood. I've watched her use her great instincts for bringing out the best in kids. She's goal oriented and will set a great example for our daughter or son. I can't wait to see her reading bedtime stories and teaching the fine art of making s'mores at the campfire!

Oh, to splash in the waves with the babes!

I love Kristin for her compassionate and affectionate nature, generous heart, sense of adventure, and because she's the most genuine person I've ever met. As I got to know Kristin, what won me over were the great conversations we had about the meaning of life. I especially admire her choice to work in higher education, made because of her dedication to nurturing young minds. I'm lucky that I found this sparkling gem of a woman!"
