• Something as simple as breathing

  
  Hank & Willie — Authority: 112

  Adventures in Juggling — Authority: 127
  I have a confession to make. I twitter at work. No, I don’t necessarily tweet about work. I just tweet or twitter away during my down time in between direct patient care.

  My Sweet Life (with Two Twinkies & a cupcake) — Authority: 126
  I am finding it hard to wrap my head around the fact that Jacob and Sarah are turning three in just 9 days. Even harder sometimes is to accept how blessed we have been.
