I've gotten this question quite a bit lately, so I thought I'd answer it here tonight. :-) Well, I have to say it's going pretty well. Don't get me wrong, some days I wish I could push the snooze button and sit at home watching soap operas and Rachel Ray all day, but that's just not reality anymore (not that I really did that when I wasn't working). Physically speaking, going … [Read more...]
Wearing a Scarlet Letter?
I was "talking" to someone who very recently lost their precious baby and was reminded of the days immediately after Andrew's birth.

I distinctly remember Mother's Day last year and the excitement I was feeling knowing I was officially a mother and … [Read more...]

Kevin and I just arrived (along with my grandmother) at our hotel here in Pittsburgh for the weekend. By the time of this post, you can probably guess that we were later getting here than we had hoped. I'm thankful for wireless internet and laptops that allow me to post even though I'm not home. Though the date on this post will be May 8th, I'm still considering it May 7th … [Read more...]
