About Me

I am a born again Christian and happily married mother of 2 beautiful girls who are 12 months apart, and no, that was not our plan. :) I love living in sunny northern California near San Francisco. Being a mom is a lot of fun and my kids keep me laughing and smiling all day (and occasionally pulling out my hair). I am married to the most wonderful man on earth!
