" Dance like nobody's watching; love like you've never been hurt; sing like nobody's listening; live like its Heaven on earth" - Mark Twain. Beyond all else, I am the wife to my very best friend and a mom to five amazing children. My blog is a little bit of this and a little bit of that, and what makes up my day to day with the love of my life Benoit and my boys, Olivier Nicholas, Joshua Etienne, Jacob Antoine, and our little miracle Riley Félix-Gabriel, and our final family member, our little princess, Juliette Alexia Mélirose...While remembering our children, Gabriell and Méliange who left us much too early...our Butterfly-Angels....Welcome to my little world...

Missing M




Life is not measured

By the number

Of breaths we take...

But by the moments

That take our breath away...




She did not take any breaths in this world...

But holding her in my arms...

Took my breath away...

Missing you M...

We have a crawler




8 Months...You Amaze Me...

I could sit for hours

Just watching you

Watching you discover the world around you

It amazes me

I love that you turn your head when we say your name

Love to watch you sit and play with your toys - smiling - laughing at them - picking them up - hugging them

Love to watch you pick up pieces of food - getting them into your mouth

Love that you dance when you hear music or when we sing to you

Love that you have discovered how to move about - one leg behind - one leg in front

Love when you reach your arms out for me to pick you up

Love how excited you get when you see your milk

Love that you recognize a song (moi et mon ami Riley)

Love when you fall asleep in my arms

Love to see you smile

To hear you laugh

Every day

You amaze me
