Travel back with me to 9:30 Saturday morning. Evan and the kids were at a school event. My friend Peter was in town for the weekend and had stayed overnight with us. He was close by, but not inside with me and Brielle.⁣

I grew up in a family of eight; I was the third of six children and the first girl… My childhood was good, but home-life was filled with tension and stress.

Let me begin by giving you a glimpse into my life as a stay at home mom. I have 3 children, ages 6, 5 and 3. I had my children within the span of 37 months…. within just 3 years I had 3 children of my own.
