{Down with Detroit}
Hello Detroit! I’m Amber Cross. I’m a 31-year-old mother of 2. My husband is in the military and we have moved all over the country, but we are PROUD to say we are natives of Detroit. We love the Detroit Red Wings and tell everyone we’re originally from HOCKEYTOWN. We hope to get our kids to their first Detroit Tigers Baseball game soon. We couldn’t be more pleased to be stationed at ‘home’. I’m excited to have the opportunity to write about two things I’m very passionate about: Detroit and this crazy life called Motherhood.
{My Life}
I’m a stay-at-home mom by choice and I find it to be the hardest job I ever loved. One of my goals while writing for this blog is to get out of the house more. My husband always tells me I need a hobby and he’s right! In what spare time I do have I love to exercise and be outdoors. I also love to write. I’m glad I get the opportunity to put my degree in journalism to good use here at DMB!
{Babies and Beyond}
Our son, CT, is 4 and will be starting preschool this Fall. He’s our soft but energetic, enthusiastic but gentle boy. Colin and I got a rough start, as I suffered from pretty severe postpartum depression. Every day we grow closer and the bond we share now is stronger than ever.
Our Daughter RB will be 2 in a month. She is a sassy spitfire. She challenges us every single day and she’s what my mother calls “The Perfect Revenge.” This quote from Shakespeare can truly be said of her “Though she be but little, she is FIERCE.”
