	<description><![CDATA[  Welcome to my journal.&nbsp; Grab a cup of your favorite beverage and peruse my ponderings.  &nbsp;    I am an Air Force Veteran, soon to be Ex-Army wife, freelance photographer, and the mom of two beautiful children.&nbsp; My seven year old Little Man is back homeschooling and loving it. Audrey Grace blessed our lives for almost seven months before she went home to Jesus' loving arms.   &nbsp;  It is often said that God won't give us more than we can handle. I used to believe that. I don't anymore. I believe that God won't give us more than He can handle FOR us. It is only through my faith that I can make it through this rough time in my life.        Follow me as I write about my daily life to include dealing with an impending divorce, my husband, my son, my faith, my ADD, my fibromyalgia, homeschooling, dishes, laundry, an elderly dog, a couple of cats, three anoles (lizards), my various hobbies, my scattered thoughts and ponderings (check out my new page: 101 Things You Didn't Know About Me). . . and you are welcomed to come with me as I work through the grief of losing my precious baby girl to a random genetic disorder called Trisomy 18 on 8 May 2004.               var sc_project=1346457;   var sc_invisible=0;   var sc_partition=12;   var sc_security="b1406b3c";           &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;        ]]></description>
