About My Family

We're your pretty textbook married, two kids and a cat kind of family. My husband and I work together partially from home. Additionally we live next door to my in-laws which is a huge help in the babysitting and "personal chef" field.

Describe your most humbling parenting moment.

Pretty much take it in stride. Haven't had one of those deer caught in headlights moments . . . yet. Perhaps when June uses her "siren/Mariah Carey" scream in public and I just have to accept that the world is turning to see where that came from.
