OK, So I lied…

So we completely lied to you and the whole family. We had planned to bring the boy home months ago to surprise everyone. We fooled them completely. Nana was even a little mad when I told her that he would not be coming. We set it up so that he hid upstairs and once everyone…

Motherhood and losing you

So two in two days. Wow…that is a first in a long time. I do not know how long this one will be but I feel the urge to share this feeling. So I have come to the conclusion that to just be a mother while your kids are growing up is the dumbest idea…
