Where has the time gone? My little baby is 14 today! I’m just in tears when I see how grown up he looks. He’s lost the chubby little kid look and is now a handsome young man. This mama is feeling old. Wish I could stop time. I love you, son. Happy Birthday! Continue Reading →

We got a call at about 1am that Amanda was in labor and having pain. It took no time for me to jump out of bed, wake Tony up, and for us to get to the hospital. Amanda labored for 12 hours and was the sweetest, most polite woman in labor I’d ever seen. After 12 hours the doctors became worried about her and Aiden and rushed her down for an emergency C-section. In a matter of minutes, Aiden was born and both of them were doing well.
