I love being a mom sooooo much. I love how Alice cuddles, how she wants to always be near us, how she smells, watching the look of realization and pride spread across her face when she learns something new. I could NOT love it more. There has never been an easier kid.

I was just totally bowled over by the massive size of the Omaha Library, and the services they have! It was like a…book mall!! My little hometown library was nothing like it. We had a...

Every time after that, you would flip through all of the...
