It's a beautiful day




This is my story.  
When I was growing up my father with a third grade education and a field worker invested in real estate.
My parents owned 27 rentals. At 16 I was the bookkeeper. I always wanted to follow in my fathers footsteps.  But, God had other plans for me.  I got married to someone who did not share the same dreams and having tenants and fixing rentals was not something he wanted to do with me.  So we bought our starter home with a cottage in the back and twenty-six years later we are still in our starter home.
We live in this cozy three bedroom home with one bathroom and one television.
I am sure my kids will have many stories to share with their children of the tiny quarters they lived in.
We rented the cottage for many years and after we lost our tenants last year, we decided to keep the cottage and turn it into my studio!  
It's a huge project but, I will be able to paint and make jewelry without having to pick-up and put away!
I am so happy my husband is a big supported of my new dreams.
