Friday the 13th.

Steve said that it’s casual Friday. That’s why he kept Sofie in her PJs. He’s so silly.


Today marks the last day of my first full week back at work. I gotta say; it wasn’t as long and bad as I thought it would be. I know, without a doubt, that it was easier on me because I spent every lunch with my family. I don’t think I could have made it without them. It makes me so happy and relieved that Steve gets to watch Sofie while I’m at work. I know he loves her just as much as I do so I know she won’t be neglected.

It has been a sad week. Nothing happened to me or our family, but I was sad none the less. It looks like a precious EB baby is heading to Heaven soon. I’ve been reading about Tripp for a couple years now. His momma keeps a blog and said that Trip is going down hill fast. Also, a woman on the message board I visit lost her 3 ½ month old son to SIDS this week. Her beautiful Zackary was born the day after Sofie. This particular woman was very active on the board so I recognized her name immediately. I’m sad for their family. Honestly, her story could be anyone’s story. It’s scary, but it also makes me appreciate every moment I have with my little Sofie. Tripp’s story makes me appreciate having a healthy baby. If you’re the praying kind, please pray for these women and their family. You and I may not know them, but God does.

I hope to never take my family for granted. I never want to be so caught up in daily, ordinary life that I don’t take the time to let my family know how much I love and appreciate them. I wouldn’t be who I am today if it wasn’t for the ones that I hold dear to me. Extended family and a couple friends included.
