My name is M.T. Gabrick. I am 51 years old and live in Peoria, IL. I teach writing, literature, and religion to junior high students at the Catholic school connected to my parish. I have been married to my husband Jim for 26 years. We have four daughters, ranging in age from 23 to 13. During the summer, I love to read, write, and garden.
