The Crazy Life of the K Family

I know it has been a long time since I posted.  It has been such a wild time, and I wasn't sure I knew what to say.  I found out, just before Christmas 2016, that I was pregnant again.  Pregnant with a Rainbow baby....  (a child born after a loss, the answered prayers after a storm).
