I’m All Smiles

by 32 Comments

I have a lot to smile about this week.

After 3 1/2 years of running and developing a start-up business, CandyMan has been hired back as Director of International Sales and Marketing at his old computer consulting office. His former (and current!) bosses love the foreign language software he’s spent the last few years developing, and are interested in merging the two and continuing to build PeanutButter. It’s a perfect solution, and I feel like a huge weight has been lifted. It will take some time to recover from the last 3 1/2 years. But it will be so much easier going forward with a paycheck. Hallelujah!

How appropriate that this week is birthday celebration week at I Heart Faces (2 Whole Years!), and that today’s theme is SMILES.

All smiles

I searched through all of my photos to find a good smile shot (that had not yet been submitted) and I kept remembering these smiles from a photo shoot last month. This little one-year-old boy nearly refused to smile for the family photos we were taking…..Until Mom and Dad started getting silly. I love that Little Boy has a perfect smile and is looking straight at me, and Mom and Dad are being goofy. Sometimes, that’s what it takes to get a smile out of a little one.

  11. My husband is definitely not done with his entreprenurial journey. I know he’ll give it another shot someday, because he believes so strongly in his company. But having an income right now is so worth taking a break (he was totally past burn-out stage, too).

  12. Like I’ve said, I am grateful for the experience we’ve had…mostly that we’ve made it THROUGH the period of no income. I wouldn’t want to do it again, and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone, but I’ve learned a lot, and will look at MANY things differently form now on. I know our struggles are not over (it will take a long time to get our credit score back up, that’s for sure!) but I feel like I can finally breathe. May 2011 be YOUR year to celebrate, too!

  20. First talk about that amazing family photo! I mean who is more gorgeous? Then as we’ve discussed I cannot tell you how much I know how huge the weight lift is. I hope your good fortune comes my way and by the end of the year we’ll be celebrating (maybe even together) our good fortune.
