I hold my little girl in my arms right now as I type, and I find myself thinking (this has happened soooo often, believe me) of how easy her life is. Literally, what exactly do babies have to worry about? From when she was born, all she did was make a noise and her…Read more Baby ME

Hardy-har-har.
I’m pretty much known in my family (maiden home included) for being the one all about cracking up. What do I mean?

Mummy dearest
Were any of you like me? You always thought that your mother was a bit crazy, over dramatic, and couldn’t possibly be right all those times (no reference to this movie, by the way).
