I changed my major to Elementary Education, added a year to my college career and ended up meeting my now husband!!
After moving to Georgia, my desire to become a designer again blossomed. I had taught for almost 10 years at the time and I was still teaching full time when I decided to complete my design degree. I took classes locally on the weekends and took online classes throughout the week. My husband was so supportive and a real trooper during my late nights. But, I successfully completed my studies and earned my Diploma in Residential Planning with flying colors.
After earning my diploma, we decided together for me to quit teaching. There were other factors such as stress and trying to begin a family (go to garyandannac.blogspot.com for more on our Adoption Journey) that caused me to quit my job.

As of now, I am back to my designing roots. I recently became a consultant for Clever Container and I am trying to build my own business through blogging, organizing and designing on the side.
I know I am on the right path and that this path will allow me to be a stay at home mom and still work to bring in the additional income our growing family will need.
Overall, I am blessed. I am happy with my choices and I have a wonderful and supportive husband. I don't know where this new journey may take us, but please join me for the ride.
