2019 was definitely a transitional year for me. My life has changed a lot. I know I have been slacking on my blogging, especially for the last quarter, but it’s the new year and it’s time for me to get back on my game. So let’s get into what’s been going on in my life. […]
There’s a new blogger in the Flaimahmy Family! It’s the Little Flower!! For her 11th birthday I gave her her own website!! This was after much debate about whether I would let her have social media.
