When Joseph was born, I had a strong and distinct feeling that he had a very special purpose in this life. There wasn't anything particularly remarkable about his birth (besides the fact that his was my first natural child birth and I had ...
February Love: {part one}
I love celebrating holidays, even the ones that don't have a whole lot of historical significance and essentially exist to boost the economy. I mean, who thought up a match-making, arrow shooting, naked cherub? Let's just ...
Boys are gross. And sweet:).
Yesterday morning as I was saying goodbye to my grade school goers, I went to give my first grader a hug and apparently squeezed out a burp. Right in my face. It smelled like old milk and cereal. But it didn't end there...ooooh no. My reaction ...
