About Me
I am a mother to a 9 month old beautiful girl named Elizabeth whom I was blessed with after a couple years of struggling with infertility. My husband Kiel is my rock and partner in crime. I found out I was pregnant with baby #2 in early August 2009 but at 6 weeks my HCG levels went down and I'm going to have a miscarriage. I own a mobile dog grooming business and hope to eventually be a stay at home mom.

High Five
I know people are well meaning but sometimes they just need to STFU and let you deal......sometimes it is not easy to keep one's mouth shut in fear that people will think he/she are a moron....it's easier to open one's mouth to say something to prove that they are....hang in there and remember they are trying to help in their own effed up wayHUGS
