    • About Me

      I lost my 17 year old son on 12/11/05 when the house he was sleeping over one night caught fire and killed my son and his 2 best friends. I also have 2 young daughters who keep me standing and breathing. If it were not for them and my friends here on DS (and my knitting, LOL) I don't know how I could have survived until now.

    • Open Parenting Big Kids (5-8)

      I have a wonderful 6-yearold daughter named Brooke Lynn. She is currently grieving the loss of her big brother, Jon, age 17, who was killed in a fire last year. So I feel like I have lost touch with what is "normal" behavior and what may be associated with her loss.
