And if you don’t think they’ll take it that far, think again. These politicians absolutely will take your rights from you too.

Grief
My brother died. There’s no way to put it gently, it hurts all the same. He was my baby brother, the youngest of the three of us. He was a mere 24 years young. He was in a freak, one-car accident and I still can’t wrap my head around how it happened. I feel I […]
Captain’s Log day 3,290
I feel like I haven’t posted much this year. Since school started, it’s been hit the ground running. Now that I have three kids in school, my evenings are filled with homework, preschool collage projects, keeping track of events and dress up days. I had a hard time keeping up with everything, and frequently forgetting […]

Amalia’s 4 Year Update
I don’t think I’ll ever get used to just how fast kids grow up. Amalia is officially four years old! She has her check-up later this week so I don’t know how big she is, but she is still a teeny petite girl just like her mamma. Amalia loves barbies and babies. She loves realistic […]
Captain’s Log Day 3051
It’s been over a year since we have taken any sort of a trip, so I decided to take the kids with me out of town for a long weekend away. We ended up making the drive to St Louis and stayed Saturday through Monday. We love St Louis because there are so many things […]
Noa’s 18 Month Update
Noa turned 18 months a couple weeks ago. We are still breastfeeding, but I’m steadily trying to wean her off. I have just been trying to distract her, or replace it with a sippy cup when she asks for it. She doesn’t always enjoy that I say no, but we are getting better. Night time […]
