Being a mom; I am obviously bias. I do believe on some days that I have super powers - even I don't know how I get it all done. And when I'm working in a fast paced full time job, I can even impress myself (we're all our hardest critic, right?) Well Vivienne Kay, a... Continue Reading →
5 things I’ve learned during life with two…

and now we’re four.
Before I start going into topics; I thought I should write down some realities that have set in.
