It started with jewelry, beading, sewing, home decor, painting, basket weaving, pottery, and cross-stitch. Marry that to an entrepreneurial spirit & at 9 years old a girl is selling her wares at craft fairs as far as her parents and grandparents would drive her.

Are you eating healthier going into the new year? We find our school hot lunches to be really bad as far as fitting with our lifestyle. More often than not, Matthew will come home with a stomach ache when he eats school lunches! Plus, they aren’t cheap, running me about $85 a month. But packing
