Today is Sunday...a good a day as any to start a new blog.
My name is Laura and I am a proud mummy to daughter Jamie (9) daughter Taylor (6) son Benjamin (2) and son Jeremy (3 months). All 4 of my children are beautiful, smart, funny and kind. My youngest son has Down Syndrome. We were surprised by Jeremy's diagnosis but are hopeful that he will lead a rewarding life...the same hope we have for all of our children. We are slowly learning more and more about Down Syndrome and I plan to use this blog to share new info with friends and family.
I am a super busy mummy and enjoy shuttling the kids to swimming lessons, gymnastics and dance classes as well as soccer practice and playdates. My kids often seem over programmed but they love every activity they attend. Considering both my husband and I are somewhat quiet people, our 3 oldest children have very loud, outgoing personalities. Mabee Jeremy will be the quiet one...we'll see.
I insist on cooking creative food despite the fact that my kids and husband are picky eaters. I try to use whole foods, and lots of veggies. Unfortunately there seems to be a lot of food waste in our house beacause I refuse to cook hotdogs, or peanut butter sandwiches. I am convinced that eventually they will come around.
I suck at housework, although I keep trying hard :)
I really dislike the TV and try to entertain my little people in fun and sometimes strange ways to avoid sitting them in front of the tube. I love my family and wouldn't change my life for anything. My hope is that this blog will help me to appreciate the little things.
Until next time.
