OT-Smoke free
Well, I'm happy to say that it has been 1 week now that I have been smoke free.
 Not that I was a big smoker(about 2 a day) nor did i ever do it around Malea but I finally said enough is enough and i don't want her growing up around it or saying my mommy smokes. So DONE!!! and that is that!!!
