Yesterday, I shared about the opportunity for Bailey to possibly go live in a group home to learn the fundamentals of independent living. After I posted the blog, I was in a state of reflection. Is it me that isn't ready? Maybe it is my fear that is blinding the view...

Sometimes I despise when my phone rings because I never know if it is going to be a conversation that enlightens me or annoys me. I love caller ID because it gives me the freedom to simply not answer. The other day, after Bryce's wisdom teeth removal, I received a...

Sometimes I am amused at the situations that occur providing me with excellent writing material. I mean, I seriously can't make this shit up. Yesterday, I took Bryce to have his wisdom teeth removed. The day before I had stocked up on his favorite drinks and food...
