So nice to meet another educator! Teaching has its challenges, but it so rewarding. You have a beutiful daughter- wow! Children are such a blessing. : )

Thank you Jessica. She has just made our lives so much better. I know you feel blessed having Harbor. They just grow up too fast. I am glad that you have been able to stay home with him for awhile. It is nice that your mom can keep him for you. My little one goes to daycare and that was very difficult for me at first.
