It’s true! After 16 years of marriage we are finally adding a new little one to our family! I know, I can hardly believe it myself. I feel like when I look at the ultrasounds that I am watching a movie of someone else. Not quite real yet.
I took me a long time to feel [...]

It’s after midnight and Jason just got home from NYC. I have to wait up for him because we have an aide who helps him with his care at night and in the morning. Being a quad, he can’t lift himself out of his chair, get undressed, etc. so someone has to help [...]

I picked up my copy of Breaking Dawn last night and sliced up some luscious fresh peaches from the Farmer’s Market. Curling up with a book and tasty peaches is the sweet treat I decided to give myself this weekend as Jason is out of town.
I predicted the first part of the book but [...]
