Talofa Lava!

Talofa Lava! That’s “hello” in Samoan…pretty much one of a few phrases I know. Yes, I’m mar­ried to a Samoan man, but I have fallen short when it comes to learn­ing the lan­guage, among so many other things. I didn’t want to always be a mom (and I am still not sure how I feel about it!). But, that is me being hon­est and what makes me Far From Per­fect. I write about imper­fec­tions in my daily life. I might be a FFP­Wife, FFP­MaMMa and there­fore have many FFP­Mo­Ments. I share many of those sto­ries along with the chal­lenges and bless­ings of rais­ing a tod­dler in a bicul­tural Samoan home as well as being a step-mom to an 18 year-old daughter.
