No matter how you slice and dice it, being a mother of young children involves juggling many plates; add a cancer diagnosis on top of that, and I might as well join the circus! All kidding aside, what keeps me passionate are my three children and their shining blue eyes. I want to show that women and mothers can do hard things and still live with joy and purpose.
