Little did we know...



About 9 1/2 years ago the only thing on my mind was Jon and I's wedding!  We were getting ready to start our life together as Husband and Wife.  I was 21 he was 23 and our beautiful little girl was 3 years old.  He was beginning his career as a Police Officer and I was a stay at home Mommy.  Our life was full of love, hope, and a bit of fear.  It was the first time living away from our parents homes, and first time owning our own home.  We knew a lot could go wrong but we had a lot of love, just not a lot of money.  We were a bit irresponsible at first and used the credit cards when we shouldn't have,  it made things hard.  Fast forward about 6 years and God had blessed us with two little boys 22 months a part.  We were doing great we had eliminated our debt with a lot of changes.  Made a vow to never to get in it again, and then the unexpected happened ... my husband lost his job.  Now we had 3 beautiful kids who we didn't want to worry, but we were panicking on how we could continue to live in our house and feed our family.  With a lot of praying God opened some options up, my husband found a job, it was a 50% pay cut though.  I found a job too, driving a school bus for our school district!  We were not in debt but we were struggling and living pay check to pay check.  We lived like this for about 2 years then things started to get easier.  Now here we are today and I am still at the school district my husband has a great job.  We also have Nerium!!!! Nerium is making our dreams come true!!! I am so blessed to be able to be a part of this company and if you were to have asked me and my husband if we thought 6 years ago our lives would be this blessed today we probably would have laughed.  We have always had a lot of love but now we have stability in a great company that is changing millions of lives like it is doing for ours!
