Once Upon a Time

In about 3 weeks we are moving from Memphis, TN to Raleigh, NC!  Say what?!  Here, let me tell you what happened...
,


​Once upon a time,

I told my husband that I wanted to quit my job and pursue art full time.  


And he said OK.  

I asked him to spend the weekends helping me setup and sell my paintings at festivals all over the Tri-State area.  

And he said OK.

We bought a house, and I told him I wanted one of the rooms to work on my art stuff.

And he said OK.  

We had a baby, and I told him I was going to cut back on art (and our income).

And he said OK.  

We had another baby, and I told him I wanted to send the kids to Mother’s Day Out so I could start spending more time on my art again.   

And he said OK.  

Then one day he told me that his company had a new position opening up.  He told me he was super interested in it.  He told me it was a "dream job."  He told me we'd have to move 750 freaking miles away.  To a city we'd never visited.  To a state we'd never set foot in.  

And I said...

OK.

    Hey, I'm Holly

    I live in Raleigh, NC with my husband and our three boys.  I stay at home with my kids and make art, and messes, and memories.
