Sometimes things just come out in the wrong way, but it is what it is.”
“It’s been amazing I obviously didn’t really know how it was going to work when I first had her but somehow mum changed her whole schedule to be in camp with us and to make sure she’s there to take care of her whenever I need,” she said.
