With These Swings I Will Fly!
Inspiration for this post came to me today while I was pushing my EB on the swings. How carefree the world feels as you soar feet first into the sky! EB giggled as I pushed her higher and higher. “Higher mommy! Again, again!” she would cheer! I am delighted that she loves to swing as […]

For Love of Kathryn
Tweet#babyloss I just made my first donation of Teeny Tiny Diapers to Teeny Tears. What an amazing project this is! Teeny Tears is a service organization that makes tiny diapers for preemies that are stillborn or die shortly after birth, because most of them are too small for even the smallest diapers.

The Dreaded “Year of Firsts”
We all have ways of measuring things, passing time, marking key events. When you go through something as horrific as TTTS and infant loss, or the loss of anyone you love, there are so many dates, events, memories. When it was diagnosed, when we had procedures, when the babies were born. When Kathryn died. I dreaded […]
I am WOMAN! Watch Me Play in the Mud!
TweetThis past Saturday, two of my sisters in law and I (and over 8,000 other women!) completed the Dirty Girl Mud Run, Western NY. It was AWESOME!!! This is a recap of my favorite parts! 1.

"Finding My Muchness"
Tweet #muchnesspicoftheday We all have it… everyone has their muchness. Sometimes it is hard to find. Sometimes we just lose it. I have been busy lately trying to find mine again.

Kathryn
Tweet I have added a new page to the blog – “Kathryn’s Story.” It’s really Kathryn and Tiny’s story, but it is all about the progression of our pregnancy, the TTTS, and the process that we went through. That little baby was a fighter!!!
Laughter Truly is the Best Medicine
Tweet Laughter, especially when enjoyed with people you love dearly, has been a saving grace in my life over the past year. Last night I also witnessed laughter working in the life of one of my closest friends. Without going into too many details, this friend has faced many difficulties in the last year. Her […]
