Lack of Focus
Since I was given this letter this afternoon I have had a hard time trying to focus. A few things were supposed to happen and I was able to do some earlier, but I think that new find has sent me into a tizzy. Do you get so excited you lose all sense of what…

Embers Blowing While Exchanging Texts
When Bryan and I began to converse, in the first month he mentioned his younger brother. This was still very new to me and talking to a New Englander took my words from me… and literally my breath. I grew up knowing that Massachusetts was integral to the American Revolution as well as Boston and…

Kodie Report
Over the past week we have had some unusual and funny conversations to say the least. Most of us feel like we have become Dr. Doolittle talking to her as much as we have lately. Although to be honest, some of us were ready going in that direction before that happened. But Dad… was not!…
