I’m a mother of two young kids (6 and 8) and understand the joy and stress kids put on a marriage. Working together as a teammate with Steve ( my partner of 12 years) is one of the best ways I feel like I can survive these early years of raising children. Steve and I love spending time with our kids, playing outside and hanging out with friends and family here in the Twin Cities.
