Better late than never!

I am finally joining the blogger world! I'd like to start by telling the story of my little family. I am a 27 year old working mom who also goes to school full-time. I am a short Christian woman loving my life!



I have been married to my husband Troy for a little over 7 years now and he is my best friend in the whole world. I could not have asked for anyone more perfect!



We have two kiddos - Dawson Everett and Hayden Olivia. Dawson is a 6 year old boy with special needs and his laugh could solve the world's problems. He is the happiest kid I have ever met. He doesn't care what anyone thinks of him and he thinks the world revolves around him, Barney, and Elmo. Dawson is pretty much non-verbal to those who don't know him but to mommy, daddy, and a few special others, he has his own little language and he is actually a pretty smart little guy.



Hayden is a sassy 1-year old princess. Her passions so far in life are food, baths, books, and brushing her teeth. She screams when she wants something and also to let you know when you aren't living up to her expectations. She loves to play with her baby dolls and her pretty learning purse so she is girl all-around. She is currently learning the importance of sharing and "nice touches" vs. grabbing and slapping people in the face. Hayden takes a while to warm up to people but once you've won her over, you have a forever friend.
