Mom of 3 (4 if you count my DH)
My husband & I work together. He is a chiropractor & do all of his insurance billing. For fun, I am a mom first, so having fun with my kids is fun- but for myself I like reading a good "Chick-Lit" book, or having Mommy Time (when I can fit it in.) My favorite cookbook is any cookbook that isn't elaborate, but nutritious. My passion is my family and living life like tomorrow is its last. My pet peeves are people talking over others (especially me), & eating with their mouth open.
