I'm an Army wife and mother to seven originally from New York now living in the (deep) south. Once a business management major, I now use my management skills to keep soccer practices, doctors appointments and juggling seven kids' schedules in order, all while trying to cram my big family into small Army housing. You can find me regularly MacGyvering things back together using shoelaces and bubble gum with a breastfed baby on my hip, all while cooking from scratch and pretending my hair color isn't from a bottle. I find sanity in gardening, baking cookies, working out so I can eat , I mean, bake more cookies, playing with my family, and writing about all my parenting (mis)adventures.
