@ScottSoCal These nutjobs are in a frenzy to out-crazy each other and it’s an incredibly significant problem. We’ve become numb to the constant barrage of outrages and they push the envelope even further every day.

It is scary and I hope we get to keep our democracy.

Someday my grandchildren will learn the history of the war in Ukraine. They will ask "Why did they give weapons for so long, because so many lives could have been saved?" The answer will be one "They hesitated and were afraid"

Today my babies are 17. 💙💙

They are thriving, healthy, happy, silly, loving, caring, and brilliant thinkers.
I was so afraid when they were born 6 weeks early. Heartbroken when they had to stay in the NICU as I went home alone. Exhausted solely nursing them for a year. Worried when they didn’t make milestones for growth.

Every minute of struggle was worth it to get here. They are greatly loved. Especially by their older sister and that is my greatest gift. ❤️❤️‍🩹

Happy Birthday boys! I love you

I smell a Pulitzer.

What a sky this morning. It was just one of those mornings that was so very special. Taken on Glastonbury Tor about 15 minutes before sunrise.
