Dear Dudley, Let me start first with a commendation: most of the time, you are a really good dog. You always sit and wait for the “ok” before diving into your food bowl, you sleep in your own bed (most of the time), and you are extremely protective of your littlest pack member, […]
Kenny loves Vegas. Is it the casinos? Nope – he can’t stand being strolled through those… and that makes it pretty hard to get around here, by the way… Is it the showgirls? Not that either, I don’t think he’s into the miniskirts yet… Could it be the exquisite restaurants and designer shopping […]
Tomorrow Kenny and I are setting off to Las Vegas! Ok, we’re tagging along with Casey on a business trip, but as we’ll be on our own for the bulk of our time there, I’m starting to mentally prepare for the adventures of entertaining a 25-pound monkey for three days on the Strip. […]
Tonight I need to write a little about my husband. He is my best friend, and I have been so caught up in the chaos of the last few weeks that I haven’t had much time to reflect on what a huge blessing that he is. Casey is a man who truly […]
Tonight makes two weeks since I lost my baby. I’m slowing getting to the point where it’s not the first thing I think about every minute of the day. But I am still crying at odd moments, still crying as I fall asleep, and my heart still aches when I wake up. […]

For the week leading up to Dave and Sonila’s wedding, I worked on getting Kenny to say, “Congratulations, Uncle Dave!” and he got pretty good at it. So good now, in fact (even if it is after the fact) that he spent the whole drive to MOPS this morning shouting it at the top […]
We just arrived home, after a beautiful weekend of laughter, love, hugs, tears and lots of dancing. I wasn’t able to get online at all in Florida, and as it’s late, I’ll have to save the writing of my stories until tomorrow. But here are some quick pictures… The gorgeous bride and groom: […]
… it seems they never stop. Casey and Kenny came with me to the hospital for the D&C on Monday, and hung out in the pre-surgery area. That is, until Kenny started projectile vomiting all over himself, Casey, the floor and the gurney I was laying on. Casey got everything wiped up and […]
