Description: Join me as I journey through life with a wonderful husband and two precious sons. Andrew, our three-year-old, is full of life and laughs. Benjamin, our one-year old, was born with Down syndrome and has already had open-heart surgery and intestinal surgery. He is the most precious addition to our family. Laugh with me as Andrew gags on broccoli, and cry with me as Benjamin meets his milestones. One thing I promise: I will keep it real and try to make you feel comfortable in my world.

Wordless Wednesday
And here I thought all she had was a box
I think it was my mom who told me about it.My cousin Casandra told her about it.And I have no idea who told her.Regardless, I'm telling you, if you don't already know.It is awesome.Free Internet radio where you get to pick the artists and/or the genres.Go to http://www.pandora.com/ and sign up.

The pneumonia is just about gone.The bad news is that all the congestion and fussiness is from an upper respiratory infection that he has developed. He sounded really bad at the doctor's office, but after listening to his chest, the physician's assistant said that it sounded like it was all in upper part of his chest/throat.
