If you’re like me you know a Mom’s Life can be like Ground Hog Day, so breaking the routine and getting out is a real treat. The other day, Jen and I got the opportunity to go to “Dancing With The Stars,” and interview some of the contestants (which really translates to Jen and I getting away from our kids for a few hours guilt free since it was “work.”) We had the most unbelievable time!!! Just being on the ballroom floor after the show was incredible, and the energy was buzzing. Then, there is the fact that I got to interview the very hot French dad, Gilles Marini. For those of you moms who do not watch “Dancing With The Stars,” start! Watching Gilles dance will transport you to fantasyland for the entire 3 minutes he is on the floor. If that doesn’t work, rent the movie “Sex and the City” where Gilles is Samantha’s neighbor (need I say more.) The funny part is that Gilles good looks aren’t even close to being the best part of this humble, loving dad. Check out my interview and find out what makes Gilles our “Mommy Pick” (he does drop off and pick up for goodness sake), and don’t forget to vote for him on “Dancing With The Stars” on Monday night.
