As the mamaloup (mother wolf) of my family, I decided it is necessary to document the daily thoughts and memories of this time in my life. In a confused, sleep-deprived and mildly insane state I wonder how much of this precious time I will in fact remember in the future. Therefore...the creation of this blog. I hope that this will also be an easy way to communicate with friends and family, show recent photos and put into words all the thoughts I would convey if I actually had the time to sit down and have coffee with a couple of friends.
My beautiful family consists of a bright and alert baby boy, a sweet little three year old girl who is the light of my life, a very active preschool boy who is my pride and joy, and my amazing husband, who keeps me sane.
