Hello out there,
My name is Lynette Hart-Balius.. I am just known as Ms. Lynette by my students for a somewhat obvious reason. I am a kindergarten assistant teacher at Magnolia Park Elementary in Ocean Springs, MS. I have been married for 5 years and I have one daughter, Katie, who will turn 4 on September 26th. I have several interests in my life, none of which I will be able to do for the next 2 years (just kidding, hopefully I will find a good work/study/life balance soon). I love spending time with my family, doing girly things with my daughter, swimming, and going out to the islands on our boat. Blogging will be a totally new experience for me, as will a lot of my online class activities.. thus, I learn something new everyday! I absolutely love what I do and I am so excited to be finally completing my education degree. I have gone through many changes over the past few years to get to where I am today. After Hurricane Katrina and the birth of my daughter I decided it was time to figure out what I wanted to be when I grew up. I told my husband that I wanted to go back to school to finish what I started. He agreed that would be a great thing to do so I quit my old unfulfilling job and we sold our house to build a smaller one so that we could afford the changes ahead. I earned my Associate's Degree in 2007 and am now on the road to becomming a certified teacher! My daughter is a huge influence in my life and I thank her for giving me the courage to follow my dreams.
