A little bit of everything-- photography, family, homeschooling, life with MS

Backseat boys (All right!)
We drove from Austin to St. Louis to be with my sister's family for Thanksgiving. We love road trips! We listened to (almost all of) The Hunger Games on the way up. Intense.
I am a Christian, a wife, mother, homeschool teacher, perfectionist, night-owl, reader, conservative, photographer, and a lot more.
I have 3 boys-- 11 year old twins named Joseph and Brigham, and a 9-year-old named Moses.
I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2005. I went from a 30-mile-a-week runner to being mostly wheelchair-bound in 2 years. In 2008 I was accepted into the HALT-MS study-- a clinical trial in which I underwent an autologous stem cell transplant (bone marrow transplant) in an attempt to put the disease into remission. So far, I have remained stable for more than four years!
I am grateful every day for the new lease on life that God (and modern medicine and awesome doctors, but mostly God :-)) has granted to me, and the chance I have to teach and raise my boys, love my husband, and experience the joy, frustration, happiness, and heartache that life brings.
