Six years ago today I married my best friend at The Olowalu Plantation on Maui! What a six years it has been. I think the biggest change in our lives is our baby girl, who we adore but who tires us out! hehehe We've been so busy with her, our kitchen remodel, moving stuff around that we really didn't plan anything for our anniversary this year. We were able to have a nice dinner out at The Tam o'Shanter with Baby Girl so that was nice. Instead of big fancy gifts we stuck to $10. We didn't plan it that way but we each gave each other something that was $10 bucks. This anniversary was the iron and candy anniversary so hubbers gave me an iron turtle and I gave him some french macaroons. Next year we will have to go to Hawaii!
As a little girl I would look on my mom’s arm and wonder why she had such a weird mark near her shoulder. A few days ago, as the warm solution penetrated my bloodstream, I started to cry remembering my mom’s mark. The nurse asked me if I was okay and I told her I was so incredibly happy. As a diabetic I was stressed never knowing if I was doing enough to avoid it but also, keeping some semblance of life in doing outdoor things. I cried because I am incredibly grateful to the SCIENCE that made this possible in only a year. Less time for me to worry about my only kiddo should the worse happen. If ur on the fence...I’ve worked in entertainment for over 20 years and I’ve seen first hand how easy celebrities influence the public. Some do good and others well...I’m happy to have a little bit of the gracious Dolly Parton with me. Scientists on the other hand, very rarely get the recognition for their years of study, years of research and expertise contributing to (wo)mankind....
