Goals – To maintain my status as mom & wife while enjoying life to the fullest.

If I can do all that and still be there for the field trips to the pumpkin patch and listening to my girls read bedtime stories and share their day with me then I think we are all the happier for it!

Personal Philosophy – Moderation is the key to a healthy, happy life.
