 [Editor's note: A big thank you to Natasha for sharing her enthusiasm and experience with us, as she traveled to the PigCHAMP head office in Ames, IA to learn more about PigCHAMP products and services. We all enjoyed having her visit and hope our paths cross again soon!] Jetlag hit me hard upon arrival, so luckily I had the weekend to rest up.  Charles and the kids did everything to make me comfortable and to make sure that I get enough rest.

Arriving in Atlana, onto Ames!

As a mom and partner it is never easy saying goodbye to your loved ones on the airport, luckily you wont be the only one saying goodbye and shedding a tear.  A lot of people are curious as to how I manage work and being a mom... my answer is simple, I have a very loving, supportive and caring man in my life.  He takes care of our children when I need to travel, and I am then able to focus on the task at hand.
