This was the first Mother's Day since becoming a mom that Sam had the day off. I was so glad that she was able to take the day and spend it with us. She worked the night before and on the way home, she called and told me to make sure the kids were dressed. … Continue reading Mother’s Day Recap

Another Mom Memory

It was just me and the kids today, as Sam had a doctor appointment. We had breakfast together and the TV … Continue reading As Lady Gaga Says
