6.) I drive a mini van and I love it! 

7.) I love coffee. Nothing like that first sip of coffee in the morning.

8.) I almost gave birth at home (twice). The last baby I couldn't make it the hospital I was supposed to deliver at so there was a change of hospitals.

9.) I don't watch TV. I watch kids shows but not for myself.

19.) When I lived in MA I taught Mommy and me fitness classes and ran several playgroups at my house a week.

21.) I love helping you find your family fun. I'm looking forward to sharing local happenings for 2021. My goal is to connect with even more local businesses this year.
