An OCD mom raising a precocious toddler.
This past weekend while Brian and I were on a golf trip Reagan stayed with her grandmother. Some times I feel bad having them watch her for an extended period of time because Rey is a very active and energetic child and she is becoming her own little person. This translates into acting out when …
