Tiffany Raiford is a lifelong Floridian, wife to my high school sweetheart and mother of four littles (two girls and boy/girl twins...no, they are not identical and yes, I'm sure). My kids love to whine, so I love to wine. My loves include nap time, bed time, date night, travel and evenings and weekends when my husband is home because he handles all diaper changes.

Bruce Jenner is probably the most talked-about person in the world right now. Jenner’s recent interview with media-megastar Diane Sawyer confirmed what the world has been wondering for the past few years; he is transgender.

Close your eyes. No, really, I promise it’s not for reasons creepy or weird. Actually, on second thought, don’t close your eyes just yet, read this and then close them.

A headache is a pain. It’s annoying and it’s uncalled for and it’s irritating. A migraine, on the other hand, […] More
It’s something some people do and others do not. For me, making the bed every single day is just a way of life. It’s something I’ve done for as long as I can remember, and I don’t remember ever being asked or told to do it growing up. I do it every day – or […] More
The Boston Marathon is one of the most important marathons in the country, and it’s one that people join to cross off their bucket list, to compete and to enjoy. While there are some of us that like to joke that if you see us running, you should call the police because someone is chasing […] More

You know times have changed when one of the world’s most famous and most prolific fashion magazines takes a step unlike any other and features a transgender model. While the concept of a transgender lifestyle is nothing new, it’s been getting more and more attention lately. It seems that with the announcement that Bruce Jenner, […] More
Being a parent is a tough job, and that’s without trying to attain levels of perfection that are not even remotely plausible. Being perfect is overrated, anyway. It’s actually a lot of stress and it’s not worth it. I’ll tell something that I’ve come to learn over the years. With four kids (almost 7, 4 […] More
There will always be the person that calls beauty vanity, but it’s not. Being beautiful might be something that some people consider more important than others, but the facts of life state that looks matter.
