Sweet Dreams June 30, 2009

It’s the simplest things that Camille does that make me smile.  The other night, we were saying our prayers before she went to bed.  After the prayer,  she rattles off a list of people that she loves and wants God to protect.  My parents, my sister, me, my husband, various animals, little friends, etc., you get [...]

You Did What? June 29, 2009

Let me start by saying that I am lucky that my husband can cook and take care of Camille when I’m not home.  I am well aware that there  are plenty of husbands who don’t know their way around the kitchen. But, with that said, I still can’t believe what my husband fed her for dinner. 

It was Father’s Day [...]

Spills and Stains June 24, 2009

It’s my fault.  I should know better than to put anything white on a toddler.   Since, the warm weather arrived I have been doing battle with stains.  I don’t think there is a day that passes  that I am not scrubbing  some stain out of Camille’s clothes.  Last night, it was ink.  I do have a [...]

Thanks, Dad June 21, 2009

Kids With Cancer June 17, 2009

I did a story today about a little girl, 5-year-old Taylor Nelson, who is fighting cancer.  She was diagnosed with neuroblastoma when she was just 3 years old.  Taylor and her family live outside of Youngstown and for 2 years have been traveling to the children’s hospital at the Cleveland Clinic  for treatment.   The family uses [...]

Anything But Routine June 15, 2009

My husband and I had some time off recently.  We celebrated our wedding anniversary and had some much needed family time.  With us being with Camille around the clock, she was definitely off of her routine.  Boy, did she let us know it.  We’ve been very diligent, since she was a baby, of getting her on a schedule and keeping to it.   The [...]

Looking Put Together June 3, 2009

No matter where we go as a family, it is always the same routine.   My husband is dressed and ready.  I get Camille dressed and now she’s ready. 
Then it’s my turn.  I look at the clock, and of course by now we are running late.  So, I am running around trying to find something to wear.  [...]
