Prayers for Our Family During This Difficult Time

"First haircut for my little princess's: growing up so fast ✂️👧💖"

We took Badger to Great Clips and gave her her first major haircut today.
Cowboy wasn't happy about it, but getting her hair washed, combed, and fixed every day had become a battle.

I'm not going to lie, I about cried when I saw all that gorgeous hair fall to the floor.

And so… The adventure begins!

My toddler has two moods: sweet angel and raccoon on espresso

I finally got around to cleaning the whole house.
It doesn't look half bad.
I even switched the couches around in the living room.
I was hoping to keep Badger off the bookshelf.

Prayers for Our Family During This Difficult Time

"A baby girl is a blessing. A gift from heaven above. A precious little angel to cherish and to love."

Who’s Who in My Neck of the Woods

Cowboy: My husband. We've been together a long time.

Stepdaughter One and Stepdaughter Two: They and their families only show up on the blog occasionally.

Peacock: My oldest son, who is married to JA. He has a daughter, Gealach, and a dog named Turtle.
AF and LR, Gealach's mom and half-brother, also show up on the blog every now and then.

Raven: My second son. He's the dad of three boys, Eins, Zwei, and Drei, and one little girl, Vier.
SK is his former wife and occasionally appears in the blog as well.

Heron: My third son. He's in a relationship with EB and has a dog named Lady.

Badger: Our daughter and the reason this blog began. I started writing to document our journey with her autism, and she's been at the heart of it ever since.

The Pets: Our animals play a big part in the blog, too. Currently, we have Duffy the dog, and cats Sasha, Lucifer, Bedlam (also known as Carl), Coyote, Fox, and Gator.
