Every Woman Should Have
…one old love she can’t imagine going back to…and one who reminds her of how far she has come…
…enough money within her control to move out and rent a place of her own…even if she never wants to and needs to…

Everything I hope to find in a daughter...

She has impeccable taste in fashion, photography,...
