When the kids were asked if they knew why they don’t have school today several immediately chimed in. Not only did they know that today…

Memory Lane Monday…Happy Birthday, Chris

Twenty seven years ago today I gave birth to my first child, Christopher. He was everything I had hoped and prayed for. He makes me laugh; he makes me think; he has made me a better person. I love you, Chris!
