After spending many years trying to convince the guy (now her now husband) that she was ＂the one,＂ Cam Bowman and her man jetted off to Paris for a weekend. Sharing a warm croissant early one morning in the middle of France, he finally realized that she was also ＂the one.＂ So one and one became two. Fast forward a few years, these two multiplied and made two more. Cam now lives in San Francisco with her husband, two daughters, and an obnoxiously misbehaving chocolate lab, named Jackson. For the trouble he causes, Jackson should have gone to the pound by now. But the heartstrings tugged by Marley and Me somehow preserve his endangered role as the family dog. When she’s not baking, leading a Girl Scout meeting, or driving to the next swim lesson, Cam spends her days navigating between laughter and tears as she raises two high-energy girls. Most days, she doesn’t know if she’s coming or going. So she records some of the unique family moments, along with practical tips and ideas she picks up along the way on her site, GrowingUpGoofy.com.
