Angela
Hi Everyone! I’m Angela and I am pumped to be joining this incredible group of Mid-Michigan Moms. Although I am a SAHM to two little rascals, I try to wear several hats throughout the week. I am a runner, graduate student, prayer warrior, wife, and cook of Greek food (or any food for that matter) among other things. I’m a fervent believer that I will NEVER be too old for a good girls night that may just include one too many cocktails. I am absolutely in love with the comradery of sisterhood and motherhood because strong women together can do extraordinary things.
