Miscarriage.

April 10, 2010

Such a strange word.  Miscarriage.  To carry something improperly. I haven’t written because I haven’t been ready to share EVERYTHING yet.  Sometimes, we hold our cards a little closer to our chest until we’re ready to lay them down. Brock and I decided we were ready to start expanding our family again.  We started trying in January. Fertile myrtle, I… Read More

How Well Do I Know My Son?

April 7, 2010

I have been reading, lately. Reading and reading and reading.  Blogs upon blogs.  Thousands of words. I have read nearly the whole archive of Maddie, both ups and downs, great joy and utter despair.

I’m a Silly Girl… For Maddie.

April 6, 2010

Every now and then, I get down and feel sorry for myself. Every now and then, I feel guilty for the life that I have, and wonder why I don’t appreciate it more.

Survival.

Survival.

March 26, 2010

Woah. Okay.  Now that mommy and Ronan have both had a much needed nap, lets go. I put Ronan in the car and left my house by 7:25am.  The drive from my place to KJ’s place is about 2 miles, with several stop lights in between.  Seriously, keeping Ronan awake for that distance was one of the most difficult things… Read More
