When my boy was a baby, I took great pleasure in playing music for him and dancing with him while I cradled him. During my so-called maternity leave (I actually worked most days from home but that’s another bitter story…), I danced around for my son and with […]
Ever since I was a little girl, I liked being a contrarian. I liked talking. I was a chatterbox. And I liked countering people. Thus, I was maybe a bit much to take as a kid but my mother managed to turn my chatterbox nature into a plus. […]
