About Me: 

?I am a SAHM with three kids, all under the age of six. Before I had kids I really lived on the edge; I read books without pictures and painted with toxic paints. I even stayed up past ten. I lived alone with my dog and we hiked and camped and I went on dates in restaurants that didn’t give out crayons with each menu. Oh, I was wild. Then I got married and had kids. Now I’m a short order cook, I wipe bottoms and I do a lot of laundry. But I know how lucky I am and I love (almost) every minute of it.

Well...right now.

 Ask me again in an hour.
