“You can have your wishes, your plans, but at the end of the day, it's out of your control" - Gayle Forman
"People talk about escapism as if it's a bad thing... Once you've escaped, once you come back, the world is not the same as when you left it. You come back to it with skills, weapons, knowledge you didn't have before. Then you are better equipped to deal with your current reality." - Neil Gaiman
@bobcee Your kids are so photogenic! I Love D's smile!
@bridget1117 Gorgeous! Seriously, how do you manage to always look so great in all your photos? I swear A knows when I'm trying to get ready and starts crying and all she ever wants is to be held. lol Also, that's a great family photo!
@amccul20 Ahh! I see your bump poking out more this week!
@caseyandlizzie He is so cute! I love how he cuddles his toys. A has no interest in grabbing or holding anything but me. lol
@MRads Ah, what a big boy! I can't believe he's already almost 6 months! Such a cutie!
@Madeline10L I seriously LOVE that picture of M! She has such beautiful big eyes!

Looking cute at the grocery store with her new hairstyle. Since it has been so cold her piggies weren't working out and she won't wear a hat so I am hoping her hair helps keep her ears warm!
And her new "chair" this morning. It is actually the cats scratchy post. Oh and she is in her favorite Jammies they have bubble guppies on them!
