Age 5

Greatest accomplishment Raising my son.

Stages of knowledge and self realization I feel I did well in each stage of my life. I thought I knew everything, loved myself in the entire process, and learned to also love those around me even more.

Balancing being a mom and having your own life I feel that having my own life and career has always empowered me as a woman. I never felt guilty for having a life outside of motherhood. The trick is the quality of time you spend with your family. When I am done working, I am home with my son. I find that you are a better mom when you are a happy person.

Romance Laughter, fireplaces and toys.
