Taken by Surprise — Chapter 3 — Smiley

Chapter 3 — Smiley

Chapter 3, “Smiley”,  continues the story of Sue’s childhood with the focus on Smiley, Sue’s mother. Smiley was a devoted mother and mentor. Sue says it best when she states, “Of course, she was the disciplinarian when I needed it, and for that I’m eternally grateful. But she was also my mentor, friend, counselor, example, and head cheerleader in my life. Smiley McMillin didn’t have a lot of luxuries in life, but she gave me the greatest gifts a mother could offer: her time, her interest, and her heart.”

Reading this chapter will give you a wonderful peek into the childhood of Sue McMillin and will help you to see that a mother’s love is really one of the most amazing gifts a child could ask for.  It will make you wish you had known Smiley McMillin yourself.  She is a worthy example of a loving mother and one that mothers everywhere will relate to and aspire to.

Sue’s Story

I've been a professional organizer most of my adult life. Who I am and why I love my work comes from how I was raised and the mysteries of DNA!

From the most humble of beginnings in Kentucky to helping businesses and organizations across the U.S., I always try my best to share both practical and inspirational principles and techniques.

I hope you enjoy your visit here and come back often. And feel free to call or email anytime.

Even though you might reach me on my porch looking out at the Colorado Rockies, a born and bred Kentucky girl enjoys a good chat.
