Welcome to the Ultimate Blog Challenge January 2nd 2022 Day 2 #UBC. The first Monday of 2022. I wish you a wonderful New year were all of your hopes and dreams come true. If there is anything I can help you with let me know.

In the meantime for the Ultimate Blog Challenge this morning’s post asked us to share more on the ‘Introduction’ theme. I would like to suggest that you let people know how you got started in your niche or market.
For me my blog became a way to stay home with my son who was a newborn. My husband and I had discussed me staying home the first year Charlie was born. When Charlie turned one I would need to return to work.
That first year I didn’t think about working at all. I was enjoying being a mom. Being at home with my son and our dogs was the most wonderful thing I could do. I didn’t have this option when Suzzane was born and I missed out on a lot of first.
In the blink of an eye Charlie turned one. I had to make good on my promise to my husband. I needed to look for work and a Day Car for Charlie. Before I knew it I found myself online searching for a job I could do from home.
I started to explore Direct Sales Companies but couldn’t find anything. Then I asked a friend what she was doing. She let me know she was a blogger. I had no, clue what that was but begin to research it. The more I learned the more I knew I wanted to try.
Here we are 15 years later and I conduct reviews and giveaways. I attend events and I am home with my son each and every day. I am able to Homeschool my son. As well as make money to help supplement our income.
I can say this BLOG has totally changed and enhanced my life and its something I would like to teach Charlie. Along with Photography so he can start his own business and when he is 16 he wouldn’t have to look for a job either.
Thank you,
Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
