Kate Helms

God, let me be half the person my doggies think I am.

I’m a Mom, homeschooling teacher, seamstress (including machine embroidery), blogger, tweeter, web page designer, web site administrator, published writer, Senior SGM/CE for Simutronics Corp., graphic design and desktop publisher. I am also a grandma, Christian, Conservative Libertarian, former USAF brat, proud Zionist and patriotic American.

My heritage is Scottish, Irish, Welsh on my Mom’s side and Cherokee, English, German on my Dad’s side. I am the eldest of four children. I have four living children and one deceased child. I also have four grandchildren.

I am homeschooling my youngest daughter (Missy, 16) who takes both To-Shin Do (Ninjutsu) and dance lessons. She is a competitive Irish Dancer, which makes me a Feis Mom. As such, I am also a hairdresser, makeup artist, costume designer/creator, fashion consultant, wardrobe coordinator, travel coordinator, chauffeur, travel companion, pep squad, critic, confidante and psychologist.
