Noah's Ark Animal Workshop- great week of connections

Hello-
Wow- what a week. My husband was home all week with the flu, and my son was sick with the horrible junk going around at his pre-school. My poor baby had fever, his belly hurt (and he proved it- if you know what I mean), and he had snot coming out of everywhere (even his ears because he has tubes). As for me, I drank tons of straight cranberry and pomogranete juice (no sugar added stuff) and I am not sick! Yea!
So, after 5 long days, I was able to get back to business. I did have a birthday party Friday afternoon for the cutest little 4 year old girl. It was such a fun party- a few moms were there and just the kids. AND, the home was so beautiful. Brand new. I tell you, the side perk to this great job is that I get to see so many insides of beautiful homes. I just enjoy seeing how they are layed out and decorated.
Most of my Saturday was spent at a local daycare convention where I made LOTS of great connections! I truly enjoy the daycare conventions because everyone there is so nice. If you work with children all day, you are a special person!
Oh, but the most unique business "thing" this week was from a sweet lady that has only been married a week. She was looking for a unique gift to give her fiance, who had given her a special gift earlier in the day. So, she called me asking if she could buy the black bear in the super animal outfit, with a recordable voice chip. The super animal out has a large letter "N" on both the front of the outfit and the cape. She was going to make him a "Super Newlywed" bear. Awwwww. How sweet! So, I meet her in a parking lot near her place of employment and she created her gift in the parking lot of a movie theater.
This job creates the neatest opportunities. No pushing products on your friends. No trying to get everyone you know to host a party.
I'm hoping this week is back to normal- everyone is much better now! But, I will say this- the great thing about my job is that I can take off 5 days to get my "boys" feeling better and not have to worry about calling a boss or anything like that. AND, while they slept, I was able to still get work done here at my house.
With that being said, this week I have one daycare workshop on Friday and 2 birthday parties on Saturday- one for Noah's Ark Animal Workshop and one for Bella Bee Glamour Girls workshop.
Ciao!
