You found it!

I know. I know. We're totally indecisive. First we're here, then we move here and now we're back. There really is a reason for all our madness. With our first blog, we intended to stay connected with our family during the birth of our son. The first blog was only intended to be used for a week...tops. When we discovered the depth of Mason's medical issues, we went back to that blog to keep our family up to date on his progress. About 6 months in, just before Mason's heart surgery, we decided that we should use a caring bridge site. I LOVE caring bridge. Their purpose is so sincere. It really opened our eyes to both the seriousness of Mason's syndrome but also helped us to realize how lucky we are to have a fairly normal child. There are so many people out there where each day is a hurdle to overcome. Our days have become pretty normal since Mason's serious heart issues have subsided. I got to a point where I felt I had to "justify" the need to use caring bridge as our connection with family. Mason's issues aren't so serious that daily/weekly updates are necessary on a site like caring bridge. Therefore, we're back here.

I'm a little excited to start this new family blog. And by little, I mean a lot! It means that Chris and I get to brag more about things going on with us! :) We are both so lucky to have the things we do. Our jobs....we love our jobs. Our family...we have a great one. Our friends...none better. Our son is our life. Plenty of this blog will contain our rantings and ravings about how absolutely fantastic our son is and how blessed we are to have him. And I know everyone out there reading this loves to read about him too. :)

I hope you enjoy it. I hope I'm good at it. If I'm not...tell me. I have tough skin. Chris, I'm sure, will want to make his updates now and again...probably to brag about the 6 ducks he tagged on opening day or something cheesy like that. (And I'm sure he will yell at me for only saying 6).

But hey...it's our blog and we can do what we want!

Glad you found our new blog...good job!
