Goodnight [Indiana] Moon

This is by far my favorite. I am totally in love with the second half even more the first. I have read this atleast 100 times to the kids and maybe another 100 more by my lonesome. Enjoy!

Thank goodness for friends.

These photos and many more would not have been possible without Lisa (and James).




I havent known Lisa for a long time, maybe about a year now. BUT she is just awesome. She has a ton of patience and she makes my life easier. I know people say, 'how do you do it with the two kids...missing chris, school, etc?" the answer: people like Lisa. People like my mother/father. People like my mother-in-law/father-in-law. People like YOU. I am just such a sap but really, I am so lucky to have the people in my life that I have. Lisa, I love you. I do. You are a phenomenal friend. Thank you. I mean that to you all of you out there that have walked my dog, mowed my lawn, washed my dishes, made my kids laugh, told me you love me...it is just every tiny little thing that makes life amazing. I love you. xoxo
