Ahhhh, my littles got new jammies. Issy's and Isaac's are from Grammie and we got Liam some new ones because he didn't have very many.

2) Try to see the positives even in the most bleak-looking days.
3) Hug my babies more.
4) Try to be a more patient person.
5) Pray more.
6) Enjoy my kids and realize that they truly do grow up very very fast.
7) Try to put myself in Joe's shoes and be a more loving and patient wife.
8) Be a more inventive cook.
9) Start up my knitting business.
10) Finish what i start.
11) Become accredited as a La Leche League leader
12) Lose 25 lbs by exercising and eating well.

Happy Happy! Joy Joy!
Sorry I missed it.
Those Yellowstone pics make me envious.
I have taken up knitting again in honor of you.
My betta fish, Firetruck, is dying and that also makes me think of you. Your fish's floating problem may be from overfeeding if it comes up again...do you still have the fish? love b
