Sometimes I find it ironic how I can be so thankful for my life. My thoughts often take me to really bad places. It’s hard not to be fearful of our future………….however, shouldn’t everyone be a bit fearful? I would imagine that a lot of people on the outside looking in on our life might […]
My friend Stefanie described in her blog her “new normal.” She also talked about the fact that the cards, emails, and phone calls are starting to fade. This is true at our house also. I was thinking about this the other day, and it made me really sad. I know we have a tremendous amount […]
I’m so thankful for Livia’s imagination. She plays so well. I love to hear her reading, babbling with her dolls, and calling me to color with her. She has the BEST bedroom.

I added a new song to my playlist on my blog by Mary J. B. called Just Fine. This song has been on my ipod forever! I was rearranging music on my playlist that I run to. I added this song because it is so up beat and I love the words. This song is […]
