    As a child, what did you want to be, when you became an adult? What do you do now? If you could, would you want to go back in time, and become what you wanted to be in the first place?

    As a child, I wanted to be a Florist. I loved wedding flowers, and I always wanted to do that.

    Now, I am a Full time Mother. However, I am a florist too, because I have done some weddings in the past. I really can't work, because of my kids. As my children get older, I would like to go back, and do it again full time.

    First and astronaut. Then I was told JW's couldn't be astronauts.

    Then I wanted to be President. I was told JW's couldn't be in politics.

    Then I wanted to be a doctor. I was told JW's couldn't be doctors due to college. I said screw it I'm sick of not being able to do what I want.

    whyamihere, is there any chance you could do florist work from home? yeah.. I know I am crazy.. I know raising little ones is a full time job..

    but maybe if you could do it in a small way to add some joy into your personal inspiration????

    EF.....Are you or are you not a Dr?

    Sassy, Yeah I have been thinking the same thing. I want to go back to doing it. I will wait until my kids get a little older. Right now I am busy fixing up my house. I will show you all pictures of when it is done. I should be an interior designer.
