This weekend I had 20 teenagers crammed into my living room to watch the Superbowl. With all of the pizza, burping and stinky socks, it was one big Febreze commercial waiting to happen.

I’m not exactly what you’d call a woman with no fear, or a girl without a care in the world. I’ll be the first to admit it … I’m a worry wart. I am a new mom to a beautiful little girl who is just about six months old. She truly is my world, [...]
I can truly say that I believe in karma.
