Giving My Daughter a Pixie Haircut
Before I became a mom, I had all sorts of ideas of what parenting would be like, and even made a whole long list of things I’d want to do with my daughters, and another list of things I’d want to do with my sons. Fast forward 8 years, and very few things of what […]
