{Week 2} TpT Seller Challenge: Dare to Dream

This past Friday was our last day, so I am officially on Summer Vacation!  One of the things I value about the summer time is having the ability to reflect and relax.  This week’s challenge is perfect for reflecting on some of the goals I have for TpT.  When I started this little side business of mine, I was incredibly motivated and encouraged by one of my real life best friends Michelle from Apples and ABCs.  Now that I am more involved in the blogging community, I am really  inspired to grow my business more. 

Family: I LOVE teaching and believe it is my calling to work in inner-city schools. In an ideal world, I would love to be able to work 3 days and stay home with my own littles 2 days a week.  I am lucky to have amazing friends and in-laws who help take care of my kids while I am working, but I would love to be more present with them. I am almost greedy over my time with them. 

Home: We bought a house 2 years ago and LOVE it.It is quaint, in a wonderful neighborhood and we have a lot of friends nearby.  Our house is almost 100 years old, so there are A LOT of things we need to do to it maintenance wise. We also want to make it more our own and that costs money.  A BIG dream of mine is to add onto our house and update the kitchen with my TpT income.

Grow:  I have had a lot of amazing opportunities come up and met a lot of great people through blogging and TpT. I want to grow more and make more connections. This is my first time attending the Vegas conference and I cannot wait to learn.  I am so excited but EXTREMELY nervous at the same time.  I tend to be a little shy at first, but I know I need to really put myself out there to make these connections and to grow more.  So, if you see the shy, little redhead in at the TpT conference, come up and say hello! You will make my day!
