I'm A Mother. Mothers Multi-task.

For My First Wedding, I Cried All The Way Down The Aisle. My Fake Eyelash Came Off. My Nose Was Red. My Eyes Were Swollen. I'm Not One Of Those Pretty Criers.

My Husband, Sal, And I Put Date Nights On The Calendar Once A Week. I Know That Doesn't Sound Romantic, But Otherwise It Won't Get Done.

I Was Homeless For A Little Bit. I Was On People's Couches, But It Was An Amazing Journey. I Got To Make People Laugh All The Way.

When I Was Little I Went To A Baptist Church With My Grandmother. My Earliest Memories Were Of Her Falling Out In The Middle Of The Floor And They Had To Cover Her With A White Sheet. Every Time We Went To Church It Was Scary. The Music Would Start Playing, And Then Everybody Would Start Running And Shouting And Hollering And Screaming.

The Best Piece Of Advice Someone Has Ever Given Me Was 'do It Scared.' And No Matter If You're Scared, Just Go Ahead And Do It Anyway Because You Might As Well Do It Scared, So It Will Get Done And You Will Feel So Much Better If You Step Out Of Your Comfort Zone.
