It's February 12 not April 8

This year of firsts is absolutely overwhelming.   Yet it is tomorrow, February 12th, that I've been dreading the most.

Trash Goes Out On Wednesday

Recycling goes out Tuesday Trash goes out Wednesday Life goes on.

Bells Instead of Tears & the #Marines #SalvationArmy

Like in many other homes Christmas at our house has moments of sadness entwined with those of joy. This year I chose to embrace my loss and turn it into a celebration with a new tradition.

It is that simple....

     Today's post is short, sweet and simple.  Go hug your child.  That's right go hug them right now or as soon as possible.  We know what blessings they are- make sure that they know it too.

~~This post is in honor of my friend Crystal who beyond an incredible miracle will be making funeral arrangements for her 17 yr old son this time next week.
