Story teller. Child wrangler. Mental health advocate and warrior. Staunch practitioner of sarcasm. Finding joy.
I only have one thought I'm thinking today and other than all the delicious food I plan to consume, it's this. Well, hold on, I actually have a little more suspense that I think I'd like to build up. Yea. I do. I could go into a whole spiel (read shh-peel because who knows how…
