    But Danielle, some of us either do not like facebook, or can not go on there. Why don't you keep up on Facebook and Pleo?

Moments.

On the way home from NY this weekend, Sean was groggily waking up from his nap and was quite sad. I was trying my best to comfort him, and with his sad little voice he said, “haaand?” and reached out to me. I held his tiny hand and he was okay. : )

    I am sooo sad that you are not coming to WI! The Sutherland's told me that it was because your grandparent were coming up. Just bring them to WI with you! I bet they would love that.

    "haaaand?" **my soft sweet voice** ...sis just left for college this morning.
    by tweedledee at 08/22/09 7:38AM

Nineteen.

Today begins the 365 days I have left to be a teenager. I plan to savor every one of them.

God has blessed my life an incredible amount over the past nineteen years.

My dad is laying on my bedroom floor reading his book... I'm going to get off the computer and read my book too. : ) I love my dad.

Thank you for the birthday wishes!


Oh and also, I plan to update here a lot more... because I want to record more of my life. It's going by too quickly, and it's too easy to forget things. So be prepared for some journal-like entries which you can choose to read or not read. ;)

♥ Danielle

    Yay, I am all about people coming back on pleo!

    Cold stone was fun. When the Starr's came in they told us that they were meeting the Tosti's there...they were not sure if we were invited or just happened to be there, thought that was funny!

Also, I made the Dean's List.

: )

I think I want to be a Midwife.

  • tweedledee
    Mmmm... I think that would hard BUT a very rewarding experience. So what put you on to this? =)
    by tweedledee at 02/13/09 3:00PM
  • schmidtkins
    Oh, that is really cool! You would probably both enjoy that, AND be very good at it!

  • stevenswife
    Congrats on the dean's list. I think being a midwife would be wonderful. We know someone here who is a midwife. Alabama has made it really difficult for nurse midwives. I think that is unfortunate.

    Wow - to both of your announcements! I could picture you as a midwife - you love babies so much!
