At the beginning of our business, my husband and I were about to enter an empty nest. I can't help but think of how my children looked when they were little, and I can't help but think of the love and affection of this home, a nest when it was first built. That is a great strength and blessing in life. When my nest is gradually empty, this feeling of "returning to the first love" becomes a memory and hope.
