Portraits Of Boston: 'What I've Always Wanted'

“Right now, we’re going through the terrible twos, but I’m not experiencing any of the ‘horror stories’ I hear. She’s made it so easy for me. Even the occasional tough times are so worth it. She is amazing. She’s definitely made me the happiest I’ve ever been, and she’s brought out quite a bit in me. I finally feel that I’m doing what I’ve always wanted to do with my life by being her mom.”
