Hi, my name is Janet
Stevenson Lewis, and my title is a stay-at-home mom. While I enjoy the
presence and company of my two grandboys, becoming a stay home mom was not my
choice. With no immediate family around to help with child care, I was left
with no choice. Fortunately, I was married to a very understanding and handsome
husband, who wanted nothing more than the very best for his wife and family, so
with hard work and due diligence, he provided the financial support in our
marriage.
But
as the boys began to grow older and began to seek common knowledge, the
television became one of our biggest entertainments. While late-night feeding
was over and having to get up early was coming to an end, I started to relax
more and needed something educational to fill my void as well. I solved
puzzles, but that wasn't enough, I tried selling things, but that was too slow
of a process, and sometimes things were never sold.
But
one day, while watching TV with my grandboys, something struck me. It just
dawned on me that most of my time was spent watching cartoons, so why should I
not write children's books? I said to myself that was the perfect hobby,
something I could enjoy and something me and my boys would enjoy together on a
daily basis.
I had been searching
for my hobby and a way to make money, and all this time, the answer was right
in front of me. This was a win-win for my grandkids and for me. Eventually, I
became more creative in my thoughts, and my grandkids were able to get a little
extra TV time. This is how our journey started, and so far, cartoons have
become our best friend and best hobby too!
