  • One day in December

    , ,

    I have a scrapbooking plan for next year. As my honey says, I always have a plan for everything. It's just how I work. I like lists, school supplies, and plans. Those things just rock.

    My sweet little Libby is 11 today!!! I couldn't be more proud of a child if I tried! (And I'm just as proud of Emily – just for different reasons, sweetie – gotta love teenagers who read their mom's blog!) Elizabeth has gone through so many medical procedures, so many different medications, and dealt with epilepsy… Read more
