Isaiah 49:14-16
But Zion said, “The LORD has forsaken me, the Lord has forgotten me.” “Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you! See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls [...]

The Love of Family

Posted by Dawana on Feb 18, 2010 in Daily Pic

This friends, is the top shelf of my pantry. I should rename it to Cadence-ville.
I told my family back in New York what type of stuff she likes to snack on and they stocked me up.

A Love Letter

Posted by Dawana on Jan 4, 2010 in Posts

Dear Cadence,
One year ago today, you completely changed my life. You came bursting into this world (literally, only 2 pushes) after almost 17 hours of very painful labor. I guess you wanted to be felt and heard because neither of the two epidurals that I received worked and I felt every bit of pain.
