Jill
Jill is a failed stay-at-home-mom turned part-time digital marketer. After a number of years and adventures in Washington, D.C., she moved back home to Georgia and settled in Woodstock. Jill lives with her husband, two sweet littles (a thoughtful, loquacious 4 year old and a fearless 2 year old ready to take on the world), and her fur-st born, Apollo. Not quite willing to give up her SAHM dream, you can find Jill regularly outmaneuvered by her two littles anywhere from the library to her living room. Send wine.
