Grayson has been GREAT- he’s sleeping well, and for the most part, content to listen to his tunes inside or be outside in the jogging stroller or swing. We’ve been eating…

Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. 1 Thessalonians 5:18This month I jumped on the FB bandwagon and have been posting (almost) daily the things I am thankful for.
