Life after loss with autism, preemies and a rainbow baby
Once upon a time, when Sawyer couldn’t talk and everyone napped long enough for me to chronicle each and every day, I used to write a weekly feature called “Dear Daddy” from the viewpoint of Sawyer. A lot of people my mom and my husband loved it but the more he actually began to talk […]
Finally it is my turn! I have been chomping at the binky to write to you Daddy but Mommy has been hogging up this place for days. I wanted to tell you I’m a man now Daddy. It all started the other day on the way to Mommy’s teeth time. ‘Member when you called at […]

Well Daddy, if I could talk I would have told Mommy that going to our little Mommy and Me class this morning was probably not a good idea. She is that way she gets when only she can say she is crabby because if you say it, WATCH OUT and we had already used up […]
