Hi Long Lost Friends! Since it’s been a little while since I’ve written, I thought that such a salutation was appropriate. The last time I wrote, I was pregnant. Well, not anymore! Grace joined our family on November 16th, and Eric and I couldn’t have been happier. Okay, not happier…
I love the changing of the seasons. While it took a little while for summer to get here, I was glad it lingered for quite some time.

Hello! How is your day going? I feel like it’s been a little while since I’ve talked to you. It’s not because I’ve been really busy. It’s because I got some type of stupid stomach bug last Sunday night. And it lasted almost a whole week. And one thing I discovered about being sick–it’s really…
