I feel like I want my blog to be this happy-go-lucky fun site with all the quirks of parenting and adulting and everything that goes with it. But that isn’t really how life is, is it? Life is a delicate balance between the good and the bad. It seems to know just where the boundary…… Continue reading Seriously, F&#k cancer
