Just a little about me...Things I can teach, etc....My Book...
I started my businesses to supplement our income; so I could be home more, as my husband is disabled. I love what I do!
I also got tired of teaching in the public schools, having my freedom of speech constantly violated, as a Christian. You see, I can't tell you about me without letting you know I am a Christian. I am also a professional and I won't push my beliefs on you. But, as a Christian, I believe it is my duty to be honest, dependable, and trustworthy. So, when I give lessons, teach crafts, etc. I will do that. If you ask me anything about whay I believe, then I will be glad to talk with you after the lessons.
I have learned so much in the 50+ years I've been around, that I want to share it with others. I learned many homemaking skills from my mother, and from my grandma. In an age of electronics, most people don't know the basics of cooking, sewing, and crafts. Many people don't have time to teach their children things they wish they had learned, or just don't have time to do. That's fine, and I understand that. When I was a young mother, I didn't have the time or energy to do a lot of what I can do now. I enjoy visiting families from my church, doing crafts, and sewing, with their children. So I started these businesses.
I will share with you the abilities I have, and you can decide which services for which you would like to hire me.
