The other day Grandma asked me if I knew anyone with Corona virus. As of right now, I am fortunate enough to not know anyone personally that has it. Though, my sister in law's sister in law and aunt, did have it a couple months back. I am so grateful that we have our health.... Continue Reading →

At the time, I had just quit working at a daycare and had really liked the name James. It was one of my favorite kid's names (yes there were favorite kids) at the time. It... Continue Reading →

Within hours of my last post, I ended up in Labor & Delivery. On Tuesday evening, we had eaten dinner as normal and decided to go to the local neighborhood marketplace to get a few groceries. I was feeling pretty good considering the pelvic issues from the 2 days prior. We walked through the first... Continue Reading →
