Blog for Jennifer

These 3 little cuties (Clara, Charlie T and Amelia) have the 2 cutest parents ever!

So cute that my Todd was named after their dad.
Their oldest little cutie Clara said to me many years ago at one of our family reunions that she thought it was silly that my little boy's name was the same as her dads. Then she toted him around the reunion for the next 5 days.

Jennifer had a bone marrow transplant last year and continues to fight each and everyday to come home for good and be with all the cuties in her life. It's a long story and if you're interested in learning more you can start here. Trust me, you'll wanna. She, or Charlie T, is one of the funniest bloggers I've ever read!
Today our family is blogging for her. We want her to know we are praying for her and think about her everyday. She's an amazing women with amazing strength.
Get better soon! We're raising our hands too!
We have the greatest family ever! Check out these awesome tributes to Jennifer.

Taking a Break

sucks!

My Uncle Steve lost his battle with Pancreatic Cancer. Please keep our family in your thoughts. Especially my Aunt Darla and his family.

Steve made my aunt smile. He was truly selfless and one of the nicest men I knew. I'm so glad we were able to have him be a part of our family. He'll be missed, but I know he's in a better place; free from pain.
Thanks.

Must Read

If you have the AZ Republic you must read it now! I never, I'm talking never read the paper, but today I just had a feeling to look through it. On the very front page was a giant photo of McCain and I thought, "I should really read up on our hopeful presidential candidate." Then I saw this..."After a fiery plane crash, a sister is held even closer." I knew exactly who it was about and had to read more. I opened to page A18 and 2 entire pages were dedicated to this amazing women and her family. Reading her blog has inspired me so much! At times I feel very inadequate in my job as a mom. I feel like I'm never good enough, my house is never clean enough, I don't spend the time I need to with my kids or husband. Reading her blog has helped me see to live one day at a time and make the most of it. Have fun, be silly, be romantic, make cookies, even lock your kids outside when they are driving you nuts. Stephanie is such an amazing women. She is so real and has the same struggles most moms do. As well as being an inspiration to enjoy motherhood and women hood in every aspect of it. Her sisters and family are amazing. The love this family shares for one another is something I hope we all have. To read more click here. To take a peak into Stephanie's life go here.
