We are inching up to the first heaveniversary of daddy’s death. I decided I didn’t want to forget the details of that day from my perspective.

1/2 A Year Already
6 months ago today we were bringing this sweet boy home from the hospital. What an exciting 1/2 year this has been for us. He is my biggest blessing.

Back down Memory Lane

I was spending the night at Mamaw and Papaw’s house, it was one of my favorite things to do.
