I am here for Friends

About Me

I have a 2 year old little girl named Lucinda (you can call her Lucy). She is the coolest person I know and I'm lucky to be her momma. She looks just like me and has my husband's personality.I'm married to a great guy named Jon who is everything I didn't know I was looking for. He has shown me full, simple, uncomplicated love that I never knew existed.I work part time doing fundraising for UNICEF out of their Boston office. I should thank my husband every day for working so hard so i can stay home with my girl.We bought a killer condo in Roslindale (the best mix of city and suburbs if you ask me) and I spend a lot of my time cleaning it and picking stuff up. Toddlers (and husbands) are messy.
