I used to be a huge coffee drinker, but when I became pregnant it became an aversion that even three years later I cannot stand the taste of it. I know, you are probably asking if I am crazy and how do I manage life. I have an answer but not too proud of it, I love...
My little boy will be turning three, in April. THREE YEARS OLD. It is hitting me more than ever that my baby bird is not a baby anymore. Although I look forward to all of what the three year old world has to offer (including the challenges), I am going to miss the...
