22 Things We Need to Teach our Children

Along with a demanding, but so loved career, I am raising two children.  Girls.  Tween girls.  Clients, lenders, venders, inspectors, emplyees and girls - that is my day.  .  It's no wonder I am exhausted and can barely set the table when I'm done with my day - which  by the way I've never REALLY done with, being in real estate.  

​At the end of the day, when we are sitting around the dinner table, whether out at one of our favorite local spots, or in the coziness of our own home, I try to teach my daughters a few things that they will hopefully care through life with them. .
