Where is the best place to invest?
I don’t know about you, but I’m very happy with the decision I made.
The 80’s and 90’s are now a blur in my memory. A new child arrived in the household every two years. Once they were able to walk, they would join the home-schooling effort.
Business in the home contributed its share of crisis, and the word “stress” was introduced in our vocabularies.
Outside criticism reached higher and higher peaks, until…
Fast forward to 2020….
I sat in the clinic waiting room, filling in blanks on medical paperwork. I glanced at the name I had listed as my HIPPA contact, for sharing health information. Mostly, I noticed my daughter’s initials, DNP (doctor of nurse practice).
What a blessing, I thought.
Then my mind switched to two other daughters who were (at that time) managing a real estate purchase for me. Both are mothers who happen to be great business managers on the side. They, like their older sister, have also served as school teachers (one teaching children, the others teaching on the college level).
Thoughts about blessings from my children continued.
The 2 older sons own their own construction businesses. They maintain my home and yard, and they continually bless happy customers and grateful employees.
The artwork of the next daughter hangs on my wall (including a portrait of Mark Twain).
Her younger sister provides behavior therapy to adults with disabilities (at the state hospital). She is pursuing the education that I myself went after (Applied Behavior Analysis).
This leaves the second set of sons.
What blessings!
One has completed 7 1/2 years of an 8-year pharmacy school program. His interest in the stock market has led him to teach Mom the ropes (helping me diversify a bit).
The other has an amazing philosophical mind and a heart for servant leadership. He has taken a break from a nearly completed course in Physical Therapy and is employed by the older brothers. The sky is the limit for him!
Yes! The dividends are phenomenal!
And I am truly thankful.
