When I think of introducing myself, several ideas come to mind. First and foremost, I am God's child; I belong to Him. Who I am today is a result of the work of God in my life. Secondly, I am a wife of a wonderful man, David Dawson. I am so thankful to have spent several decades journeying together. I am a proud mother of two sons whom I love dearly and who have now begun their adult lives. I am a teacher of students I value, both in my home and in a school. I am an author of a book that I hope helps people to more clearly understand the God who loves them.

In all these roles, and many others not mentioned, I am striving to be a person of integrity, honoring both God and others.
