    Becoming a Mama has given me a whole new perspective and respect for all the moms who’ve come before me. People can tell you “it’s life changing”, but you don’t know what it’s really like until you’re in it.

    My sweet Cali Rae brings us so much joy and sweetness. She melts my heart when she says: “hi, I love you”… “bootiful Mama”… “oh goodness”… and gives us hugs and smooshes! She can be a rollercoaster of emotion, wearing her heart on her sleeve - she reminds me how to live in the moment.
