Not Ya Mama’s Cookin’!

Getting the Team Back in The Game

“I am building a fire, and every day I train, I add more fuel. At just the right moment, I light the match.” ~ Mia Hamm As a parent, I feel that the perfect metaphor for what I do as “Co-Captain” of my team is to be as organized as I can and build up my […]
