My Moving Story: Entry 3

March 9, 2010

Moving to the country with the beautiful scenery, peaceful quiet, and lots of space for the kids to run and explore is why we moved from the suburbia.

My Moving Story: Part 2

March 5, 2010

Daddy went outside first to start the snowblowing, if you have a snowblower, you know how it just blows the snow right up in your face which is not very kid... --more

My relationship with my Grandma

February 2, 2010

My grandma is a dear woman that I adore and admire. I’ve always loved her but when our connection started is when I lost my first baby to a miscarriage. My grandma has 3 babies in heaven and she has always talked about them. I never understood why she would talk about them, I always felt uneasy hearing her mention them and almost wish she hadn’t.... --more

Beginning of Cindy’s Corner: my personal blog

January 30, 2010

I began blogging days after my son, Elijah was born, I recorded every single thing he did, every tiny change, and how I felt as his mommy.

Once my daughter, Elizabeth was born, I diligently blogged... --more
