Welcome to my learning experience

 Welcome to my blog, Learning with Leigh.  What am I learning you ask?  The primary purpose of this blog is a mode of communication for class assignments for my Masters degree program in Early Childhood Studies with Walden University.  I have twenty years of experience working with families and  young children through Early Intervention, as a BabyTalk teacher, as a Parent Resource Specialist for the Parenting Assistance Line at the University of Alabama, as an interpreter/translator for Spanish speaking families in most of the previous settings and currently as an Office Associate in Child Development Resources at the University of Alabama who also assists with the Parent Resource Library.  Most importantly I am a mother and have raised three extraordinary young men who have taught me more about parenting, good and bad, than any job I have ever had.  I have been curious about blogging for years and am excited about this opportunity to have a focus for one.  I look forward to exchanging ideas and getting to know you my readers.
