Introduction | No doubt there are angels amongst us. God gifted me three in my children! I learn more important stuff from them on a daily basis than I learned in all my years preceding motherhood. Combined with the other angels that cross my path on a daily basis, I consistently feel as though I am living a glorified life because of their presence. I am Maggie -- Jill of all trades: Stay-at-Home-Mom, Non-professional Teacher (General and Special Ed), Amateur Therapist (OT,PT, Speech), Closet Artist, Freelance General Contractor and Handy Ma’am for hire. Whatever is called for on any given day. My husband, formerly known as "Captain", recently changed his title to "Sarg". My 7-year-old daughter is my "old soul" and "the boys", are my 4-year-old identical twins who happen to have been blessed with an extra 21st chromosome (aka: Down syndrome). Some hear of our situation and pity us. While I cannot magically correct their erroneous thinking, I can advocate on behalf of my boys and I can write here... and introduce you all to this absolutely wonderful phenomenon I call my life. This blog is dedicated to my family, my angels, and all the richness they bring to my life. |

Your superpower is that you smell like dandelions whenever someone lies. How will you maintain your secret identity?
I'll wear different flowery perfume every day. Then, when I smell like dandelions because someone has lied to me, I'll tell anyone who notices that dandelion was my scent of the day... But only I will know the real truth!
