You know how when someone you love is hurting and you go into super-hyper-overdrive and have to DO something to try to help? My phone call with Prisca catapulted me into that mode and I couldn’t sit still. The following day, I boarded a bus with my 9 month old...

I am the village diva…and I am ok with that. Now I know what you’re thinking: a diva is a loud woman who is rude and always has to have her way. With me, this is only half true…I am loud. While I do like to have my way (and who doesn’t) I can give in. One...
