Mom of two trying to get by with spending as little time away from anything outside of enjoying my 3 Pilgrims! We lead a crazy life trying to make the best of every day! With my husband working 45+ hours a week an me owing my own hair salon it's hard to find time for the REAL important things in life. It's not easy but hopefully I can share some tips, vent about what's going on an learn from you. My prayer is to embrace my life everyday, hopefully you'll embrace yours too! XoXo
