This has been a long journey in this past 10 months, and I want to thank every single person who has read Phoebe’s story. This is a dream that felt like it died when our daughter passed, but God had a plan. At the beginning of this year, I felt strongly the word over our…

1 year ago today I began a journey that has challenged me, pushed me, brought me so much joy and has blown my mind with the encouragement and support of others. This blog has meant so much more to me that I have ever realized. I know other bloggers may have gotten farther in a…

Why I teach my children to never be ashamed of who they are
Originally posted on Babies and Gentleman: I honestly was not planning on writing something like this online for a few years now. But here we are. The ugliness of racism and hatred and homegrown terrorism has made its way into the forefront of our news, homes and our hearts. It’s when children of all colors…
