Friends
Zachary has many friends, across an array of different connections. Funny how these connections are a big part of who he has become. Nothing like watching him goof around with his buddies. They all make me smile. The boy is lucky to have so many good friends in his life. These buds help make his …
Growth
And now at 8 years old. We recently played a tournament with two teams that were really, really good..as in pitchers who threw with real heat. On Saturday, we split the games with a win and a loss. Sunday, oh boy, what an amazing two games. The first game, we played the team that destroyed …
Hello Again
Hello, it’s me. I was wondering if you’d like to meet. Much like the Adele song, we need to say I’m sorry. This blog has been MIA for a bit. And I really can’t make excuses. So, I’ll give an update to get back to speed: Winter ended in the northeast, but not before tearing …

Basketball
It’s been a tough basketball season. We won our first game last weekend in a nail biter. With 40 seconds left, our left wing hit a shot to seal the win. It was so rewarding to see how excited the boys were and after several losses was well deserved But that hat excitement was short …
Winter
Its no secret that mommy is not a winter lover. In fact, I really do believe that the artic wind is my calous enemy. How could it be so cruel! It’s as if we taunt each other while running. Me seemingly running in place while 20 mph winds blast me from all directions. Doesn’t it …
