Its official! The house is on the market as of Monday. Troy Todd, our fabulous Realtor, came and put the sign in the yard and I thought that it would be an emotional time but truthfully I am REALLY excited about the new ventures and possibilities in our life! I know there will be many [...]
As I sat in the hospital I thought about how this New Year came with such a sense of hope. I guess one would think that maybe being admitted the second weekend of the year does not bode well for the rest of it but I beg to differ. I fail to believe that God [...]
There have been so many “technical difficulties” around here lately… if you are a normal visitor to my blog… you probably recognize that something is WRONG. I finally did too!!! If you are viewing this in IE… it looks nothing like if you are looking at it in FF. Also, somehow, it has started randomizing [...]
I do. I know many of you do to. I would like for you to meet Becky. She is 10 years old and has been battling bone cancer for two years. Her doctors have told her parents to “take her home and enjoy Christmas” as this will likely be her last. While Becky’s family continue [...]
This has been home for us this week. I have to say that the Cleveland Clinic foundation is breathtakingly beautiful. When you pull up to the front drive it nearly takes your breath away. I always thought that Cincinnati Children’s was a magical place… I had not KNOWN what it is to be in awe [...]

His family are saying their goodbyes and praying that he is released peacefully into the arms of his Savior. Everything in me hurts……. for this [...]
Well unit #3 is down. She spiked a fever last night and we had to call the after hours nurse. Like that did any good. She tells me… “if she gets too sick, take her to the ER..” Well yeah, I could have told MYSELF that. Then she proceeds to tell me to rotate tylenol [...]
I had to get back out of bed (even though Cake Boss is premiering!) and write this post. I know that this will probably never makes its way to Jon and Kate but I feel the need to write because of my recent experience in this arena. While I do not have 8 children… I [...]
I think this pic pretty much sums up how we ALL feel today. As we turned onto Higbee Mill we glanced in the backseat to see Ross and Kyleigh (Minnie mouse and George the monkey) totally out cold! Today was another LONG day in Cincinnati. We started the day driving before 10 am and did [...]
