| Introduction | is me. I'm a traveler at heart who has been temporarily pinned to her home. I love big, live large, and always try to take out some time to appreciate the things that matter most to me. I ♥: my husband, our baby boy, and our doggies. In my former life, I was a graduate student working on a Ph.D., but have put that dream on hold to stay at home with my boy...and it's been my most award-winning role yet. |
