Jody Polka, Neighbor

I moved to Frankfort in 2000 with my husband and 6-month-old son. I think I can safely say that was one of the best decisions we have ever made. Our family grew by one with the addition of our daughter. Since then we have made so many lifelong friends that we now consider family. My husband and I were both born and raised in the South Suburbs, when it comes to baseball our family's allegiance is with the White Sox. We have a great divide when it comes to football the girls are Packer fans, and the boys are Bear fans. We are a very active family. Both of our children are and have been active in the Frankfort Youth Athletic Association, and we cheer on our Frankfort Falcons every week.  My daughter also participates in UGA, and my son has wrestled for the Little Celtics since he was 6.  Both of our children have truly been blessed by some pretty amazing people that have coached them through the years.I am a full time Administrative Manager, I am a firm believer in Karma, and I will always tell it like it is.  I owe everything I have to my parents who taught me to: always give it 100 percent, finish what I start, to always believe in myself and the possibilities are endless.  These are some of the things I strive to teach my children as well.
