First, I'm a wife and a mom.  My toughest and most rewarding job so far has been raising my precious Emma.  Emma is an undiagnosed special needs "puzzle".  Maybe one day I can come back and update this but for now she's just a beautiful 8 year old girl that has unknown reasons for learning disabilities, auditory and vision processing problems and a few other nuts in the mix too.  We just say we're a team.  "Emma and Mommy ~ Working to make Emma as smart as she can be."  Our weeks are filled with appointments to doctors, chiropractors, occupational therapists, neurologists and the list goes on and on and through it all she keeps a smile on her face and a bounce in her step.  I'm a detective and an investigator 24/7 trying to find answers to help her in any way that I can.  I will never stop making sure that she has every resource available and open to her. 

Then I have Maxwell and Elissa.  Max is 5 and Elissa is 3 1/2.  They're 18 months apart, however they act like twins.  I homeschool them right now for preschool and in the fall of 2011 Max will go to Kindergarten and possibly Elissa will go back to traditional preschool ~ it'll be up to the little princess herself.  :)

I write about my children and I have a special column dedicated to Emma in my blog Fruit Lips 'n' Yucky Charms.  I'd love for you to visit me there and even follow me.  Give me your feed back.  I love to hear from my cafemom friends.  That blog is obviously close to my heart.

Then I'm a two time business owner and entrepreneur.  It is very important to me that I'm able to create an income from home so that I can be here to take care of everything I need to do for Emma and my other two children.

How have I been able to work from home for so long?
 
The key to my work at home success has been STAYING IN ONE PLACE.  Have you noticed how so many people jump from one company to another?  I found a GREAT company early on and have been smart enough to just STAY PUT.  I learned early on that it was very important to soak up everything because I didn't know ANYTHING.  I was going to be a sponge and I was going to do everything to become a success.  Today, I show my team how to translate that into their own businesses.

You can see exactly what I do by going right to my site: ChristinaWiler.com.

You're also going to find a lot of info right here on my CafeMom page too.  Please don't hesitate to contact me if you're interested in Ameriplan.  I'm telling you, I've been here since 2006 and it's been a blessing to my family.  I would NEVER do ANOTHER network marketing company EVER.

What Else Do I do from Home?

I'm a web designer and also own another business as well!  Inspired Advantage is where I get to be creative.  We are a professional, unique, affordable web development and marketing company that focuses on the individual and the small business owner. Our website development packages are focused on the client who has not updated his website recently or the one who hasn't even ventured online due to the extreme cost of the traditional graphic/web designer.

We create all of our client's websites on the Web 2.0 platform.  We also offer services such as Social Media Marketing, Video Marketing, web hosting and much more. With Inspired Advantage the small business owner will see the greatest ROI and value for their budget.  Now you've had a chance to get to know me, I'd love to get to know you too!!  Send me a note or a message or write in my chatterbox and let me know a little about you.  I can wait to get to know you!  :)

I'm sure you can tell by looking around my page that I'm more than PROUD of the company that I've been working at home with for such a long time.  Not only do I get paid for the work that I do, but I have been blessed to have been rewarded with some FABULOUS all expense paid trips as well as rewards for the hard work that I've put in. 

In August of 2008 ~ Ameriplan awarded it's top producers and their guests to an ALL EXPENSE paid trip to Las Vegas.  I'd never been anywhere NEAR Vegas so this was more than an exciting adventure for me.  Below are a few pics:

October 2009 ~ Ameriplan awarded the top 50 producers and their guests with an ALL EXPENSE paid trip to Playa Del Carmen, Mexico. We had the time of our lives. It's a trip I'll never forget. We were treated like royalty. It was absolutely amazing. Below are some pictures from the trip. Enjoy!

I then won another trip to Las Vegas and a trip to Colorado Springs, CO. both of which I had to decline participation in due to the needs of my daughter here at home.  It was sad to turn down the fun, especially knowing the red carpet treatment we are given on these fabulous trips, however, my entire reason for working from home IS my children and they most certainly come first!  Las Vegas and Colorado will always be there for me.  My children need me TODAY.  :)
