>Today Thea had her 9 month well baby check up. She got her booster for the H1N1 vaccine and barely cried at all. Thankfully Leila was able to get her booster of the mist as well and she also did awesome…the first dose didn’t go as well but with Cory there to help, she was calm and happy to escape a shot!
Thea weighed in at 23 pounds, 14 ounces and is 30 1/2 inches tall. She is a big beautiful girl and aside from a bit of a yeast infection that we need to get under control, all is well.
"We are not put on this earth for ourselves, but are placed here for each other. If you are always there for others, then in time of need, someone will be there for you.

"What I want to say to you is that sometimes life catches you by surprise and you feel unequipped to handle what it brings you, but every bit of life you've lived before that moment equips you to live through it. That's what I would give to you."
-Fanni Victoria Green-Lemons (talking to her daughter)
If there is any secret to this life I live, this is it: the sound of what cannot be seen sings within everything that can, there is nothing more to it than that.
"The most important thing she'd learned over the years was that there was no way to be a perfect mother and a million ways to be a good one."
