Trying to incorporate Russian while I'm learning it myself is quite the task.
I'm a native English speaker. I know a little Spanish, but wouldn't consider myself fluent. I can carry a light conversation without the use of Google translate (too much).
So, learning Russian is a task. It's a fun one, albeit challenging at times. I try to have one solid hour each day of teaching Bear Russian since all he
My Mother's Day weekend 2016 is something I won't forget anytime soon. We went to the #LALovesPrince concert on Friday and it was super fun! (To see our adventures, click here.)
And then Saturday happened.
Bear had a slight limp on the night of the concert and I didn't really think anything of it because he did walk around a lot. Saturday morning, however, his limp grew more pronounced and it

It gets better but it's still pretty shitty.
For those new to the blog, I'll share this with you: over four years ago, I lost my firstborn, Ethan, due to incompetent/insufficient cervix. That means, my cervix shortened before term and since Ethan was just a few days short of viability, he couldn't be saved. He lived two hours and peacefully died in my arms with my husband nearby. That
I actually remember this day. Not sure why I was wearing a wig because apparently it was hot enough for Bear to be shirtless. Maybe I was just too lazy to mess with my hair (it happens.) We had fun, tho...
You know, people used to tell me how fast it all goes. You're snuggling them one day and you're sending them off to school the next. I never knew exactly
