Hi!  My name is Shay Singley. I was born in Selma, AL and lived in Grove Hill and Monroeville, AL until finally moving to Tuscaloosa. I attended the Tuscaloosa City Schools and graduated from Central High School. I also attended the University of Alabama and earned  Bachelor and Masters degrees in Early Childhood Education.   I have three precious girls - Kate (23 years old)  Grace (20 years old), and Emma (15 years old).  Kate attends graduate school at The University of Alabama.  Grace attends The University of Alabama.  Emma is a sophomore at Hillcrest High School. 

I love to read every chance I get, walk, run, plant flowers, and enjoy the outdoors.  Our family enjoys playing games, watching Dancing with the Stars, going out to eat, playing tennis, watching Alabama football and Atlanta Braves, and going to the beach! We are members at Calvary Baptist Church. One day I would love to visit Hawaii, Italy, Switzerland and run a marathon.  

Little known fact:  I once had a summer job working at Walt Disney World!

Favorite children's book: Mrs. Spitzer's Garden by Edith Pattou
