You know, I've been a mom for almost 13 years now, which is incredible to think about, and many of you may have been a mom for longer or for less, but I guarantee all of us have heard these phrases.
For the longest time when I heard these phrases, it was like a punch to my gut, but I didn't ever understand why. These phrases were shared with so much love and that's okay, even if you've said these phrases, I've said these phrases before.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
