Melanie Norman - Long Island Writer

Lover of photography, writing, sushi, butterfly kisses from my two girls and bear hugs from my husband. I am a mother to two princesses, Kara and Sara, with a handsome boy on the way. (Yes, I already know he's handsome.. I have the ultrasound pics to prove it.) I love Long Island but I'm as Southern as you can get. I was born and raised in Memphis,Tennessee, but when my husband was offered an amazing job we moved. I've been here for years and this Tennessee drawl ain't budgin'. I love every part of Long Island: the beaches, the vineyards, the beaches, the Hamptons, oh, did I mention I love the beaches?  If you see me, I'll have my Canon Rebel EOS. I take it with me everywhere. I love being able to capture a rainbow after a storm, a spider spinning an intricate web or my two girls making a mess cooking in the kitchen. I taught kindergarten for three years, and I still enjoy teaching. I love everything Mommy Poppins stands for and being a part of such an amazing team.
