Hello! I am Jamie's mother. I would just like to say that no one could be more proud of the hard and tedious labor and results that Jamie and Charlesey have chosen to pursue. This young couple are so dedicated and sure aren't afraid of hard,hard work! They have a dream, and are bound and determined to make it a reality. I say: "what courage"!! When I first saw the house they are working on--I wouldn't have had it if someone had given it to me. But then, my youth and ambition have both passed. Probably in my younger days I could have seen the potential they see, and would not have let anything stop me from achieving what I wanted. Jamie and Charlesey--I commend you both on your joint commitment and unending vigor for achieving your goals. So, my dear children, continue on, and I only pray that you both will stay in good health and that every day will bring you closer to the reality you forsee for your future together with your property and the home your are creating. May you both be blessed with whatever it takes to reach your destiny, and to be able to forge your diamond out of the rough and most of all, always have the love and devotion you have for each other and keep the embers hot and never let the internal fire go out. Having a companion to share a dream and persue it together with a compassion for each other and for the desires that both share, is truly what this life is all about. I love you both so much, and I am so thankful to have you both in my life. So go forth,stumble little; let setbacks go behind you, and conquer your quest. Keep the additions to your blog coming! " It is a good thing", as Martha Stewart might say. You a penning a book--and a good one,--and it is so exciting to see what will happen next!
Thank you for allowing others to see what you are doing as you go along.
With all my love and support,
Your mother and mother-in-law, Elva
