I will make no false claims to my sanity, as others have done in their posts~

I am insane! There, I said it, it's out in the open and it didn't hurt at all! You can do it too Kerry~

Tristan was born at 22 weeks (amazing in and of itself), survived (a miracle too), and is a thriving toddler with a trach, mickey feeding tube, numerous surgeries, procedures, and currently capping in preparation for decannulation- hopefully!

I have forgotten when I became a member (can't remember lots of things these days), but am glad I found you guys!

Oh yeah, my other kiddos~ Josh, Jenna, Gracie and Jon and occasionally a foster baby or two just for fun! My last count was that we have had 26 children come a go through our home over the last 11 years. Most of them have had medical issues and 2 have stayed on as permanent family members!!

I also have 2 grandsons (Colt and Levi) and my first granddaughter is due any day now- her name will be Shelby.

Oooh I didn't know this fantastic news! Congrats .....(grandma!)
So weird to think of you as a grandma.
But I guess technically speaking, I too could be a grandmother.

So do you get the senoir discounts?

Anyway, I am perfectly normal and 100% sane.
