While wasting time on Pinterest tonight, I found a Pinner who had some truly decedent dessert pins. When I went to her Profile page I found 3 other boards with for sweets, cupcakes and other sugary foods along with 3 additional boards for other foods and drinks. These boards happened to be above her 1 Workout board. Either this woman owns a bakery or puts food at a higher priority than working out and staying fit. I'm not trying to judge, it just made me laugh. Then I came to the sad realization that my boards are set up the same way. Looks like I need to prioritize my boards … welp, I know what I'm doing for the next hour … one cup of tea and desktop, here I come

CHD Awareness
Today starts CHD Awareness Month. This is the story of my 2 (almost 3) year old CHD daughter.
On March 23rd 2010, Tempest came into the world. She was so adorable with her head full of hair and squishy cheeks. From the outside, you couldn't tell anything was wrong with her. Upon a closer look, she was diagnosed with a Bicuspid Aortic Valve, a Patent Foramen Ovale, and a Patent Ductus Arteriosus at 1 day old. Of course all these words I couldn't even pronounce scared the Hell out of me. Why couldn't they just tell me what was wrong with my baby in English?!!! Luckily none of these required surgery, just careful monitoring till something happens. Not sure if that was supposed to make me feel better, but it didn't. My little girl was a ticking time bomb. Just waiting for one of her CHD's to knock her down. It will be 3 years since her diagnoses & we've been blessed that she has not had any problems. It may be broken but she will always have a beautiful heart.
I am proud to be called a CHD Mother.
Please help me in supporting and spreading awareness of CHD Babies, by taking (copy/save) one of these photos and sharing with your family and friends. Thank you!
