The Family Celebrates - Barb Kuchocki
I'm a 40 year old married mother of three children ages 2, 9 and 14. After 15 years of working in Social Services, I decided to stay home to raise my family. I have homeschooled for several years, with one child now in public education. I have been an active community advocate and volunteer for many years in education and childrens issues I love to sew, create new cooking recipes, read and write in my "spare" time. .
