Life After Lesley
"I think it started from President White believing in me..."
"...I think we were pretty well prepared."
"I didn't teach then because we were never in one place long enough."
"...with fear and trembling I had to go and say I was pregnant..."
"...I figured as soon as they went to junior high and they would be gone, I would go back to teaching, and that's what I did."
"I would get home and quickly turn on some jeans and make some brownies so it looked like I'd been home all day..."
"I knew my senior year that I didn't want to be...in a classroom saluting the flag at 9 o'clock every morning..."
"When my husband died...every weekend for months and months a different girl from my class would come and stay with me."
"Well I think that just the training that I had has just been helpful...with my children..."
"...I came out feeling like I could stand on my own two feet."
"I think [Lesley] gave me the ability to look into the distance."
