Have you ever felt as if all that you do is try to keep your head above water? I dare to say that most of us have experienced this precise feeling at one time or another.

How in the world do parents get their children to look so darn adorable every morning for school? Seriously? Are they, like, SuperMoms or something? You know the ones… The little girls in matching dresses and tights and cute little shoes. Their hair pulled back into intricate braids with matching bows. They have glittery pink […]
