You are incredible! I can’t wait until you move to New York. I will babysit so you can have date night
We will definitely need a babysitter!
I hope that you have this list where you can see it each day. There’s wisdom there. It may have been a very “ugly” time, as you say, but your blog is beautiful, very honest and real. It’s life – the good, the bad, and the “ugly.” I’m glad you are doing well and hope you and your blood can be friends again. I’m a friend of your mom’s from the hospital here in Hartford.
