There will be moments when you laugh out loud and moments that have you reaching for the tissue box. Ashley very candidly shares her story of becoming a first-time mom in a foreign country and learning on the fly, a sentiment that can be shared with any first-time parent.
"...sometimes a stormy sky can be beautiful, but even when it's not, remember that once those storm clouds roll out, there is always a beautiful moon waiting."
