Janell
Janell is a stay-at-home mom to two boys and two girls. She met her husband at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, where she studied Early Childhood Development. After college, Janell taught as an elementary teacher in Corpus Christi. Once her first child was born, she left the public school scene to become a full-time mommy. She is addicted to children's books, Pinterest, and chocolate. If her busy life allows, you might find her buried in a craft project, discovering a new book, or simply snuggling with her amazing hubby and little ones. Janell loves writing about her mommy experiences, and she is ecstatic to be a part of the Corpus Christi Moms Blog team!
