October 24th, 2011 It’s here. No, really here. I know the first day of fall occurred weeks ago, but the weather has been so warm and forgiving, I’ve been denying summer really just turned and walked away.

October 22nd, 2011 As horrible and painful the first six months of this journey were, it definitely happened for a reason.
