I am a busy mum to 6 amazing children..4 of which are living at home with me keep me on my toes at all times between singing shows,talent shows,charity events,football and so many other activities. My kids are my world and around them I work 3 jobs (each my own company) We are originally from Canada but have been living in England for over 6 years now and love it here...still the odd culture shock but wouldn't change the move here for anything! :)
