Life after loss with autism, preemies and a rainbow baby

On a day out with Daddy you get to…ride in the car (not Mom’s Car Seat Mobile) go to the “Man Store” get an ice cream as big as your head eat ALL of it and pretend you are the King of the World for a little while anyway. (On a side note: If you […]
