Dear boys and girls, parents and staff,
My name is Ms. Mulcahy.
|
When I was a child:
When I was quite little, I made up stories by talking to the small furry
or feathered animals I met on the roadside bank at the edge of my yard.
I have been storytelling and reading
books with boys and girls for a very long time! |

Things I like to do: Outdoors is a place I
like to be. Almost any outdoor activity is on my favorite list:
hiking, biking, nature exploring (mountains, ocean, woods, lakes).
The game of pool is awesome! Dancing and gymnastics keep me energetic. |
In grammar school, I loved to tell stories to my playmates and the
little children in my neighborhood. I loved acting in plays.
When I became a Brownie and then a Girl Scout, I earned my two favorite
Girl Scout badges: the Writing Badge and the Reading Badge. Often, when
I was babysitting, I made up adventure or nature stories at bedtime for
the kids. |
And I like every season equally.
I keep a small flower garden every year.
Indoors, I keep my house filled with plants. |
 |
For two years on
hot summer days, I would take my loose-leaf pad to the tree-shaded
moss-covered rock at the top of the hill up in the woods behind
my house. There I would lie on the cool moss to
idle away the day writing down the newest chapter in my book. Soon, I
needed to find a way to hold my many loose papers together!
But my constant love was writing poems. I have written a few short
stories, too. |
I have always
had a pet. Now I have my cat Peter. He is a mix of
Maine Coon and Manx. Over the years, my black lab Lucky lived with
me the longest--for fifteen years--, and we went everywhere together. He
even was my sled dog when I wanted him to pull my daughter on her sled!
I have enjoyed my daughter's guinea pigs, too. |
 |
I never stop reading and writing. I read books every day, and write in
my journal several times a week.
