General »

I am an unskilled housewife! A former corporate career girl, now I am trying to learn how to keep house, raise children, and be glamorous all at the same time. I have 4 kids, 2 teens (a boy and a girl, both adopted) a 5 year old girl, and a baby girl. We homeschool mostly, but my two oldest go to public school for some classes. I am learning to cook, clean and raise kids. I am very interested in convenience products.
