About This Site

I am the mother of a wonderful 8 year old girl. She amazes me with her abilities and makes me laugh.

She is warm and caring and she is gifted.

After being told by a psychologist at age 7 that she is gifted, I set out on a journey to discover everything I possibly could about these children.

As I read through different web sites and books, I felt that a personal touch about life with a gifted child was missing.

This is why I created my site giftedjourney.

I am doing something I love, and I can work from home spending as many hours per day as I want.

I offer a lot of information about gifted children and wherever possible, add a personal touch.

I have a Bachelors Degree in Child Studies and enjoy writing.

I am learning a great deal and having fun doing it! I discover something new everyday.

One of the most important things I have learned so far on my journey is the need for parents to advocate for their children.

Sometimes this can be hard, but it is necessary. Only a parent truly knows and understands the needs of their child.

I was nervous and somewhat overwhelmed with the idea of creating a site. I needed help to make it happen and Site Build It came through big time!

As I read through their information, I realized just how much they over deliver.

They do so much of the time consuming work for me. I am able to spend my time creating content which ultimately brings interested people to my site.
