Recently, my 5-year old daughter Cupcake and I were in conversation as I was putting away groceries. She looked up from her coloring book and answered me with a curt, “Umm….yeahhh!”

I realized I was falling in love with The Husband (The Boyfriend at the time!) about six months after we started dating. I had gotten ill with a nasty head cold. Romantic, right?

The Husband and I recently celebrated ten years of wedded bliss. We could not take a big long vacation, but a one night getaway was definitely in order.

In an effort to avoid potentially embarrassing moments when out in public, I have been attempting to create mouth filters for my kids. Teaching the kids to watch their words is proving more difficult than I imagined

an honestly say now that I enjoyed my time as an unmarried professional woman--my life was mine, as was my money, my time, my sleep, my food...However, I spent many of those seven years wondering if I would ever meet the right guy and live happily ever after.
