From Waitress to Mother and Maker | Edmonton News
Description

But as life unfolded, she discovered the unexpected gifts: flexible shifts that let her be present for her children, a tight-knit community, and even perks that helped her family thrive. Her sons learned real-world skills too. What started as resentment became reverence—she realized her time behind the counter wasn’t a detour, but the very foundation that shaped her into the woman she was meant to be.
