My name is Eliza and I am a stay-at-home wife, and new mother. I come from a large family and thanks to the craziness that ensued, I'm a rather patient person who tends to be great with children. I was homeschooled on and off as a child and eventually left public school for good as a junior in high school when I realized that the public school wasn't helping me achieve my goals. It wasn't encouraging my love of learning, it was crushing it. It wasn't helping me celebrate my individuality, it wanted conformity. How's that helpful? Add to that the chaotic social dynamics of hormonal teenagers and it just isn't a good environment for our young people. I went home to finish my schooling and by the time my peers were graduating, I had already graduated and moved on to my adult life. I was married to the love of my life. I was on a path towards true happiness. My husband had also been a homeschool graduate and thanks to his mothers encouragement, he had started a very successful wholesale bakery. By the time he was 15 it was flourishing. And now, we can't slow it down as it continues to grow and expand! I was working with him daily in the bakery until we found out that I was pregnant with our first child. Nosebleeds and morning sickness don't mix well with baking.
Now, I am focused on bettering myself and learning new things. I've already started on photography, voice lessons, ukelele, and interior design and I hope to be able to excel in these soon.
I believe that music has the power to change lives.
I believe that a picture can say more than any spoken language can express.
I believe that any room, no matter how small, can become a sanctuary or escape with just a few tweaks and some attention to detail.
I love life. I love creating.
I hope to someday soon go to barber school so that the haircuts I give to family and friends can become more than just a hobby.
I love sunshine.
I love baking on rainy days.
I love to walk along the river and feel the sand between my toes.
I love flying kites in the dark on a warm summer night.
I love fireworks.
I love to interact with people from all stages of life.
I love making people laugh.
I love to see the joy on people's faces when the learn something new or experience something wonderful for the first time.
Overall, I would say I am a simple person who enjoys life- and loves to look for, and appreciate, the small things- as I live it fully.
