Quote: "Motherhood is like that one dream you had when you were 16 where you have this big test at school in history. You study for weeks about the American Revolution, but when you get to your chair you find out that the test was actually in math. So now you’re stuck trying to figure out the square root of an elephant multiplied by the weight of a neutron star and it isn’t until after the test is over that you find out the answer was Purple." –Malinda Ruzicka Carlso. 

"Motherhood Out Loud" will be presented on Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 and on Sundays at 2 p.m.
