OK, so I do not really think I am the worst mommy ever, but I am starting to believe that I am the worst stay at home mother. I don’t cook well, clean well, bake well, organize well… I”m not crafty, I can barely manage to get my kids in clean clothes every day, let […]
In the Moment
I took some time off from the blog. Not really on purpose, I just ran out of time and decided that for the whole week of Christmas, what I really needed to do was focus on my family. I wanted to be in the moment. I avoided Facebook, Twitter, texts, phone calls, and internet (for […]

Today’s feature is in memory of Tyler, a TTTS baby born sleeping on December 15, 2010. His mother, Christina, founder of the TTTS Support Team, wrote […]
Something Amazing {Kathryn Day}
We must capture those moments when something Amazing happens. Memorialize it forever; in our hearts, on our camera, on our blogs… some place. Today, something amazing happened. Tiny pointed right up to one of the butterflies decorating her wall and said “butterfly.” (OK, so it came out “bee-fly” but she is speech delayed – cut […]

Happy 2nd Birthday to my #TTTS Survivor
My TTTS Survivor is TWO! Today is sweet Tiny’s 2nd Birthday. We celebrated on Saturday night with the family. It physically pained me to NOT put Kathryn’s name on the cake as well. But the thing is, I don’t want to take away from the joy and happiness of the day for my living twin […]
World TTTS Awareness Day – Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome (#TTTS)
World TTTS Awareness Day 2013 Another year has passed and I’m not sure all that much has changed. Babies are still dying at alarming rates and so many babies are being born prematurely, some with severe disabilities, due to Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome.

Hide the Thanksgiving Turkey?
I had to laugh when I read the Dose Girls’ post today: Is That Turkey Disguised as Elton John? You see, my son had to do exactly the same project for school. The gist of it is, they were sent home with a drawing of a turkey, and they were to “disguise” it so that […]
