Well, that was fast.

We were able to get surgery scheduled for Levi yesterday, so the two of us arrived at the hospital at 6:00 in the morning. Okay, it was 6:10. But nobody yelled at us about the ten minutes.

Sometimes by stopping, closing my eyes, and taking… Continue reading Taking a Moment

Wish Trip

Ah, memories.

When we went on Levi's wish trip, everything was just pristine, everywhere. Disney's dedication to perfection is legendary, but honestly, it was the same at Give Kids the World, at Universal, and at Sea World. Everything is immaculately groomed. Understand that my standards of cleanliness have degraded somewhat in recent years. Mostly I'm just happy… Continue reading Ah, memories.
