Very tough week. A member of my husband's fire dept. was killed while vacationing with his family when another driver crossed the center line and hit them head on. He was 39 and leaves his beautiful wife and sons, ages 2 & 4.

Nonna had a tough day today. 2 baby showers in 1 day for two special sets of parents. It is also Liam's Mommy & Daddy's 1 year wedding anniversary. I'm glad I started my day by going to church. While I am happy & thrilled for each set of parents, ...
