It all started because I didn’t want to freak them out. Which was a good intention, but the road to Hell is paved with good intentions. My littlest is a year and a half old. There should be three of them. They should all be a year and a half old. Most of the time, I look on the bright … Read More
One Year Later
It’s been a year today since our little girls were born. Today we celebrated Lilia’s birthday (yay!) and I also fiercely missed Seija and Daisy. But it was a wonderful day filled with happiness.

I won’t know until the 19th. It’s killing me a little. It’s funny how we’ve known about the three babes for about 24 hours, but I’m … Read More
