Home






Sally and Janie decorated the house for our arrival home!  It was just what I needed.  When we brought Solon home over three years ago, my dad and Janie did the same thing for us.  Things have changed a lot since then.  It was hard not having my parents there with all of us.  Even more so because I knew exactly what it felt like with them when I had Muffin. 

But my mom and dad let me know they were not far away.  When Jay and I were heading out the door to head to the hospital, we both spotted a bright red cardinal sitting on the tree next to the porch.  It was looking right at us.  I hadn't seen one in months, and I immediately started crying.  I know it sounds corny and super-hormonal..but it was my dad telling me he was there with me. 

I had photos of Momma and Daddy set up in the hospital rooms with me, and each doctor and nurse asked who they were when they came in.  Tudor-Beach's grandparents.
