About my kids: 
My kids are now 18 and 15, and continue to be the light of my life! Both are kind, hilarious and hard-working individuals with their own unique interests.
Parenting is...: 
"There is no greater calling on earth than to be the life-guide, the teacher, the nurturer, the supporter, the caregiver, the honorer of a young life. There is no greater calling." -Oprah Winfrey Lifeclass (OWN)
We know you don't have a lot, but when you do, what do you like to do in your spare time?: 
I love to hang out with the kids, introduce them to funny 80s movies, read, write, play with little ones, take long walks along the water and catch up with friends over tea.
When are you at your yummiest?: 
After a long walk, great sleep, hair appointment, facial and great chat with my friends! (I'm getting a little more high maintenance as time goes on!)
If someone wrote a biography about you, what would be the title?: 
Phew!
What's currently in your purse?: 
Which one? Well- they're all packing lipstick, powder and teabags for sure...
What superhero power would you like to have?: 
Definitely flying.
If we gave you an elephant, where would you hide it?: 
In my car with everything else I don't know what to do with.
