I'm Still Here

 Hey everyone, if there is anyone who reads this,

A ton has happened over the last few years and I honestly thought I had written much more recently than this... We moved from California to Colorado to North Carolina in the last 3.5 years. I became a registered nurse. My husband joined the army and finished his commitment. Our oldest is 17 and our youngest is 9. The kids are really growing up! I'll have to give an official update at one point. 

Due to the fact that this is a public page, I've never shown the faces of my children. We still aren't sure about that. But I am not even sure if people actually read this lol. It's been a good tool to process my son's heart condition, surgeries, and all that has come with it. 

Micah is 11 years old, now, and almost 7 years post-op his 3rd open heart. Can you guys believe that? I literally started this blog to be able to cope with the tremendous emotions and pains that Micah's diagnosis came with... I've been able to sprinkle in parenting advice, cooking ideas, and our journey with congenital heart disease along the way.

One huge thing that has remained the same is that Jesus Christ is my Savior, my king, and he has saved my son, time and time again. I couldn't have made it through any of this without God. 


Thanks to anyone who's come along for the ride. I think it'll be fun to write more. I know I've had ideas stored up in a file, here, somewhere, for a long, long time. ❤️
