Massachusetts Has 2 Of The Top 10 Best Cities For New Moms!

Looking back I realize now that I spent a lot of time growing up watching my Mom in amazement and marveling at how she raised my two older sisters Laurie and Paula, and me. How she kept us from killing each other is beyond me.

It couldn't have been easy especially while my Dad was away at sea. Often for months at a time. Kudos to you, Mom. You did a great job but as I already mentioned, it could NOT have been easy. I imagine that it may be even more difficult for new moms.
