We wake up, get work, go back home and rinse and repeat – or at least it feels that way sometimes.

I hope they say she never made me feel insignificant. She always showed up when it counted the most and she always said “you can totally do that” I hope people saw me as someone that just spread love even in the most simplest ways. The world needs more love. So much more. Read more>>
