Sweet 5th grader

It's hard to believe Liam started 5th grade. Where has the time gone? And how am I so lucky to have such a sweet boy in my life? He walks me to my car every morning. He guides my car out of the driveway as if we were at an airport. 
One morning he chased car down just to get a hug. We are so blessed to have each other in this life!

Never enough

I honestly wish people knew how hard it is for single parents to do basically anything. Getting out of the house, getting everyone to bed, getting free time to my own... all require a lot of coordination and there is NO backup. There is no one to fill in when I'm sick or to step up when I just need 5 minutes or to tell me I'm doing a good job when everyone's asleep and the house is so quiet.  I feel like a failure in so many parts of my life; that I'm just not following up enough, I'm not doing enough, I'm not appreciative enough. It's just never enough. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I resumed it at 19 weeks to get to help my SCH heal  *I take additional magnesium to calm my ...

New York City Trip with Liam!

For Liam's 10th birthday he wanted a night in New York City with me. We talked about this trip for months and hemmed and hauled over what to do or where to go. We considered doing a trip to Jamaica to one of the all inclusive resorts before finally settling on a night in New York City together.  We booked the actual trip the week before. We took the Amtrak from Harrisburg to New York City which was extremely convenient. There is a parking lot just under the bridge from the train station which cost only $6 a day!  We booked a hotel on priceline but in the future I will just book with the hotel directly to use my Hilton honors points.  When we got into the city we went to our hotel to drop off our suitcase and we were fortunate enough to be able to check in early we relaxed for a few minutes before we headed off towards times square and then the world trade center memorial.  While we were in times square we went to the tkts window to get Broadway tickets out of discoun...
