OPINION

BRADFORD, Judge.

Appellant-Defendant Samantha Light was convicted, pursuant to a guilty plea, of three counts of Class A felony Child Molesting 1 for which she received an aggregate sentence of 125 years in the Department of Correction. Upon appeal Light contends that her sentence is inappropriate in light of her character and the nature of her offenses. Concluding that Light's 125-year term does not fall outside a reasonable sentencing range and that enhanced consecutive sentences are not inappropriate under these facts, we reject Light's challenge to her sentence and affirm.
