Businesswoman at Heart

I've had a business card since I was nine.
Back then, we were know as the Service Hunters. I lived in a small apartment complex in Pleasant Grove. Across the street was an old folks' home. I decided to round up a few friends, set up some fliers, make some business cards, and offer a free service to anyone who needed a helping hand for the day. I saw a lot of interesting things...
Next came Summer Camp. Hooray. You've heard all about this one. It was more of a pain getting started, but I made a bit of loot any eleven year old would gain bragging rights from.
I started modeling. Still do. It pays well.
Then teaching piano. It's definitely the easiest one; I get to pick my own hours and wages.
Now we reach the present day- wait for it...
I have a new business.
I woke up the other day to my aunt on the phone asking for me to make a few gift baskets. My orders were to make up some business cards, create some baskets, and deliver them.
Lizzie's Love Baskets.

Most grown men would be jealous of my resume.
