"I just got over bad long relationship," she told me. It feels so good to be single again. "I am on my second date and I'm loving it."

This mother of three dresses up like a teenager... LOL... and heads for the bars for her second date and you should see the look in her eyes.

"I'm looking at you and you look so gorgeous," I tell her. "Maybe you should keep the part about being a mother of three out of the conversation when you get to the dinner table tonight."
