Alex is 17!!

Today is a very special day! It's Alex's 17th Birthday and a special day in my Life. I can still remember being at the hospital that morning and walking up and down the hallway hoping to speed along the delivery, then the next thing I knew my second son was born at 12:28 PM. He weighed in at 7 lbs. 11 oz. and was 20" long. He had blond hair and blue eyes and was a handsome boy from the very first day! The births of both my boys were truly the happiest days of my life and I will forever CHERISH those moments!!


Alex was born on a damp and cold Thursday morning back in 1992 and back in 1992, it was "Holy Thursday"! We came home from the hospital on Saturday morning, the day before Easter. His very first outing was to Easter Bunch at Nana's house the very next day!

This is his official "hospital" picture that was taken on the morning of April 18th. He was two days old!


Happy Birthday ALEX!!

I LOVE YOU always and forever!!


Hugs and Kisses,
MOM

A Little About Me

My photo
Northeastern, Massachusetts, United States
Purple is my favorite color and ironically - Purple is the Awareness Ribbon color for Fibromyalgia, a chronic illness I lived with for over 18 years. In, March of 2015, I was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer which had spread to my brain. I am fighting hard to win this battle and determined to beat it. I have a amazing Oncology Team, along with the LOVE and SUPPORT of all my family and friends! I am a Mom to two grown sons, Alex is now 25 and married to Acacia, my wonderful new "Daughter" and the parents to my precious Grand-Daughter Harper, and Brian amazingly is 30 and now lives in San Diego. My boys are the greatest loves of my life. Hubby, me and our two "Pups", Skye and Zeva, two adorable Chiweenies we rescued in 2012, all live very happily in a tiny coastal town in Massachusetts. We lost our dear "Scoutie", a Purebred Dachshund, in April of 2015. I still miss him and will forever cherish his memory. I am an avid card-maker and totally love every minute I can spend in my craft room. It's become my passion, a wonderful way to relax and is my form or "therapy".
