Hope
















I love the Spring. Flowers pop up everywhere...in the cracks and crevices of where we would least expect them.
A little reminder that HOPE can be found anywhere if we take the time to look...


Answers to questions:

Kimberly asked,”Have you always lived where you live now?”

I was born in California and then when I was about three years old my family moved to Maryland. We lived there for about two or three years and then we moved back to California, where I have lived since.
Surprisingly, I remember quite a bit from those Maryland days, but I'm a California girl with roots firmly planted (even though I love to travel).

”What did you do before going to school?”

I worked in accounting for a grocery store. I did all the bookkeeping, payroll, accounts payable/receivable, etc. I worked in the grocery business for 17 years and when they decided to close the doors I thought it was a good opportunity to change careers. There’s nothing rewarding about spending someone else’s money.
