Introducing Myself - QuadLover

So, this is my (our) first blog post.  Myself, QuadLover, am a 24 year old female in a relationship with my boyfriend who is a C5 Quadriplegic.  He was injured in August of 2004.  Even though we haven't been together long, he has truly become the love of my life.  We met online, on an online forum for Persons With Disabilies (PWD) and Devotees (Devs).  Yes, I am a Dev, hence the name of the blog.  

A little about myself though:  I am a personal aide in the local school district.  For the last 2 years I have been an aide to a 13 year old boy with multiple disabilities.  Our entire school is students with disabilities, so I really have an awesome job.  I love what I do, even on the days that it drags me down.  I have a bachelors degree in Sociology, and I am working on my Masters in Special Education.  I love being outdoors.  I have just recently gotten into birding.  Photography is also a hobby of mine.  I'm sure that I will share some as time goes on.  I am also a dog lover.  I have a 16 year old mutt, who has been part of my life for 15 years.  

That for the most part is me.  Keep an eye out for LegalQuad.  We are going to be sharing this blog together :)
