Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, it’s what I was diagnosed with last week after doing testing and lab work. Honestly, I’m not even too upset about it, though there’s no cure. But thankfully, it’s not a life threatening condition, just something I will have to adjust life around for the foreseeable future. The good part? I …
My why: I chose the path of a homemaker over a career.

Has it really been a month already? Wow, does time go by faster with each kid! It feels like we just brought him home from the hospital last week. But anyways, it’s been a whirlwind of a first month. This being my 3rd baby I honestly didn’t have too many assumptions for what the first …
