  1. A Blessing

    Good Morning Our Mighty Little Lion!

    This week has dragged for Nonna. I am on "vacation" next week and then we have holiday break at the college. I do love my job, but each year during this holiday, Nonna just wants to be home. G-Pa has been trying to get me to go get a Christmas tree. I honestly have no desire for a Christmas tree this year and quite frankly it doesn't bother me.

    The doctors don't think you even know I am here but when you are awake you look right at me. You are wide awake and I wish I could hold you. When that time comes it will be one of the happiest moments in my life, next to ...

  5. Your Little Signs

    Good Afternoon, My Precious Angel,

    You always have this beautiful way of reminding me that you are close by. You have these little signs. I feel you with me and all around me, yet sometimes I feel so far away. This morning, I know you could sense that...

    While I was packing my lunch and Landon's lunch, I thought to myself, "Geez, I am really dragging my butt today!" Just then, one of your brother's truck starting making noise. I looked in the living room and ...
