People ask me how I manage it, but evidently, I don’t…

Posted on April 5, 2013 by

Yesterday, I sat at the table and I cried through lunch. Not one of those snotty, bellowing, heart-wrenching cries. No. Silent tears dribbled down my face and plopped into my lap – I was tissue-less. Yesterday, one child after another … Continue reading →
