I love my kids. LOVE THEM. I love them so much, I gladly open my wallet to send one kid to basketball overnight camp, one kid to soccer day camp, and the third to drop-in classes at the local art gallery. They'll go with the grandparents to the cabin for a few days, and (much to their chagrin) complete a level of week-long intensive swimming lessons.

We live in an incredible time where there is something new and shiny coming out every day, and we just can't wait to be the first to pick up the latest smartphone or try the trendy beauty product! We laugh about life before the Internet and smile with forced patience at our grandparents when they start in with the "back in my day" speeches.

When we were teenagers, we chose body care products based on fragrance and which celebrity endorsed it on TV. Of course, I was from the generation that thought getting a sunburn in early spring was the best way to get a solid tan base for later in the season. Higher reasoning was reserved for such complexities as how to get a guy to ask you out without having to openly tell him you liked...

NIVEA has been part of my life for almost as long as I can remember. As I child I was always fascinated by the classic blue tins of NIVEA Creme my mother and aunts kept stashed in their purses and on their bedside tables (and they still do, by the way). I would sneak up, open the lid...

J'adore les émissions de télé-réalité culinaires. Au point où ma famille s'indigne de l'espace que j'utilise sur notre enregistreur vidéo, ne laissant aucune place pour les séries d'ado ou les documentaires technos!

I love food reality TV. My family gets frustrated with the amount of space I claim on our DVR. No room for teen dramedies or techie documentaries - ha!

I am a milk-and-cookies kind of mom. And sometimes I even share those cookies with my children.
Unfortunately, since having my youngest son I have become lactose intolerant! Thankfully I'm able to enjoy my favourite cheeses, but regular milk as a beverage or in my morning cereal is no longer an option.

Yes, I am a specialty nail treatment virgin because I've heard too many stories of weakened, flaking nails that look absolutely awful when the polish comes off. My nails aren't the strongest to begin with so I have always chosen simple...
