Two Years Later

It's hard to believe that so much time has gone by without posting a blog. Things have been rather hectic, and I've been doing my best to manage the chaos as best as humanly possible.

For those of you who don't know this, I became President of Arthrogryposis Multiplex Cogenita Support, Inc. But I'm still a wife. Still a very active member of my church.
Still a mom. Still work my full time job. Still me.

Since my last blog there have now been three conventions for the Arthrogryposis Group. Year 2 was in Dallas, TX. Year 3 was in Dublin, Ohio. Year 4 will be in Philadelphia. It's amazing to have been part of this organization for so many years. The growth of an idea that started out as Ani's dream is mind boggling. From year one in Chicago, to year 3 in Dublin was about 400, next year in Philadelphia I expect that number to double. Our chair of this even MaryBeth would probably want me to bite my tongue. :)

The artist I spoke of in my last post, is now a dear friend, and Lily Rose's godmother.

Lil Louie, who is now 4, has defied the odds, and started walking at 2.5. Learning to balance was a labor of love, one that we continue to work on. But he's walking. Thank you Lord.

All of the kids really are doing great. This is my oldest' last year before high school... Sigh... time flies.... My Thalia just started Kinder.

Anyway, I'm reading The Shack by Wm. Paul Young. If you are a Christian, which I hope you are, read this book. If you're not a Chrisitan, read this book. This book will help you on your journey to not just know God, but to love God, and hopefully learn to learn and love His children as he does and how you do or should.
