So I'm back in Richmond after a great week in Baltimore with my family. I rode back with my parents and my niece, MacKenzie, since they had already planned to come down this weekend for my grandmother's birthday. It's nice to be back home, but I've sort of been in a funk today. I've been missing Andrew a lot today. I'm not 100% sure why it hit me today specifically. I made a comment to my mom … [Read more...]

Andrew’s Story: Second Trimester & A Polycystic Kidney
I don't have all that much to report today, but I still want to post something. This morning was tough. For some reason, the tears just started flowing and didn't seem to want to stop. I was just sad - sad that Andrew wasn't here with me watching Kevin head off to work and sad that he wouldn't be here with me when Kevin got home from work.
