10 Things About Lynn

1. Lived in Upstate NY (Syracuse, Rochester & Marcellus) and Naperville, IL before returning to my hometown of St. Louis in 1990.

2. My DH was also raised in the Midwest (Wichita, KS). We decided that if it was good enough for us and our parents, it's certainly good enough for our family.

3. Two years ago I became a first-time mom at 42.

4. Left the corporate world right after the birth of our son in 2005 with no regrets at all!  After 22 years, I had had enough of working for someone else!

5. We would love to have another child but fear the complications of "late in life" pregnancy.

6. We are devout Catholics, and regularly give of our time and talents to our church community. We don't have much treasure to give right now!

7. I'm a WAHM with two direct selling businesses:
SimplyFun www.lewy.simplyfun.com 
family entertainment games, puzzles, puppets, and more
and
PartyLite www.partylite.biz/lewy
candles & home decorating accessories 

8. I also work p/t outside our home at a historic church. I took the job almost 2 years ago shortly after my husband was laid off from his f/t job. (Our son was only 3 months old at the time of his layoff!) The church pays me a decent wage for 12 hours a week. I consider it my service to a church that has been so very good to me and my family these many years.

9. Lexi, "The Wonder Dog", is a 9-year-old Shih Tzu we adopted from Purina Farms here in Missouri. We picked her up the same weekend we learned we were pregnant with our son.  My parents ("Nanny' and "PaPa" as our son likes to call them) adopted LuLu, Lexi's sister from the same litter, the same weekend. Since my parents live so close, less than 2 miles from our home, they are the greatest baby sitters and tend to spoil our son rotten!

10. Paper crafts is my favorite hobby but now I don't seem to have much time for it with my growing businesses and a toddler to chase around the house. 

Play-fully,

Lynn
