October 31, 2007The Guilty Mom
October 31, 2007HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
I had a scare today! No, not of the Halloween variety. I had a real scare. The kind of scare that makes a mom feel guilty and grateful all at once. Preston fell off my bed this morning.

The Beauty of Autumn & Children
October 30, 2007Unfortunately, our trees haven’t changed to the beautiful fall leaves that everyone else’s has, yet. The picture above is our front yard last Autumn.

Only Time Can Tell
October 26, 2007Some of the questions that goes through parents minds when they discover that their child will be born with Down syndrome is “How will this impact the life of my other child (or children)?”, “Will my older child (or children) be teased about their sibling with Down syndrome?” “What happens if I die?”, and “Who [...]
The Progress With Preston
October 25, 2007Recently, I had been worried about Preston’s milestones. The books would list more and more things that Preston should be doing, and he wasn’t achieving these milestones. First, he wouldn’t hold his bottle…then he wouldn’t pull himself up into a sitting position…then it was crawling…then it was pulling himself up to stand. All the things [...]
