What Makes Me Glow
I am not sure what routine makes me glow. Is it my morning coffee or my shower at night? I enjoy my first cup of coffee in the morning playing my games before my children wake up. I do not get much time before my four-year-old wakes up and starts to cry that he wanted me to stay in bed with him. No, he has not stopped crawling into bed with me and his dad at night.

Life Goes On
It was February 1996. We'd done it. We'd made it through the first year of marriage. This included a diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis, a high risk pregnancy, a head-on auto collision, premature labor and delivery of our baby girl, followed by an aortic dissection and open heart surgery for me. So what else is there to do, but go ahead a open some very belated Christmas presents? It was actually the last thing we felt like doing, but the lights were still up on the house and our tree, and friends and relatives were anxiously waiting to have us all back together. Christmas was here, and I was happy just to be alive and that our baby was healthy. Did I mention, she had colic? She was not tolerating the formula and I could not breast feed because I take blood thinners. So, we had to keep trying different types of soy formula/cereal blends until we discovered one that would fill her up and help her sleep longer, yet not upset her stomach. All we wanted for Christmas that year, was a good night's sleep.

I had promised myself I would never return and yet here I am going back on my meaningless words. I never thought he’d die.
