This week's parent of the week is Helen- a delightful, funny, down-to-earth mom of a precious adorable 4-year-old boy. You will love reading about her adventures and perusing her cute photos. Enjoy!

Tell me a little about you- Who are you? What do you do? Hobbies? Do you dance in the car?
I'm Helen and I'm pretty sure it'd be easier to tell you what I don't do than to tell you what I do do. I have a culinary degree, but I gave up the dream of being a pastry chef when I realized the hours I'd have to put in - on my feet. ha! Now my degree is put to use packing lunches & making family dinners.
I do work outside the home still, at a desk job though. I also run a jewelry business with my sister (Pink Fish Designs) and a local park blog (DFW Parks & Playgrounds). In my free time (haha!) I enjoy running & off-road cycling. I also try to spend as much time as possible with my crazy son & my amazing husband of 9 years. Oh, and I totally dance (and sing, terribly off-key) in the car.
Tell me a little about your child.
I have one full-throttle, non-stop, spirited, loving, hilarious son, who will be 4 in July. He is a morning person for sure - he literally bounces out of the bed early in the morning, talking non-stop. He usually doesn't stop talking or moving until he falls asleep - sometimes not even then! He loves to be the center of attention & if we're in a crowded room he'll ask me "how can I make all these people laugh?". He is super smart (of course!) and comes up with random questions likes "do they play a lot of tennis in Tennessee?". He is currently obsessed with jellyfish, electric eels, Legos, Scooby Doo, & Transformers. He also loves to tell stories, read books, go "adventuring" & climb on any & everything he can find.
