My Life in a Nut Shell

3 surgeries for Endometriosis, countless medications, and lots of difficult years trying to conceive. We put the medical stuff on hold and decided to work on being parents instead. In July of 2000 we were blessed beyond all measure with a phone call announcing the birth of our daughter, Megan. Megan's birth mother had given birth the day before and was leaving the hospital. We had no warning that Megan was coming. At 4:29 in the afternoon we were a couple, at 4:30 we were parents. Deciding that we wanted a sibling for Megan, we looked into all our options. This time insurance covered IVF. One round and we were blessed with triplets, Abigail, Brigid, and Caroline. Did you know that there is a 70% chance of divorce in families of Higher Order Multiples? Almost two years after the triplets were born my ex-husband and I separated and eventually divorced. During that time both my Mother and Father passed away from cancer. In February of 2007 my sister came to live with us to help out. In December of 2008 she had to leave so now it is me on my own with the girls. In February 2010, Lisa passed away and finally found her own Peace.

My girls are in the national news!!!

I still don't have the internet so I am using a neighbor's computer. The girls were interviewed by local news yesterday because it was their first day of kindergarten. There are two other sets of triplets at the school as well. You can see them at WHAS11.com. They were also on Good Morning America this morning: http://abcnews.go.com/Video/playerIndex?id=5571048 They also made it on the AP news wire which is ap.org. You just type in triplets at school in Kentucky and it willl bring up the video as well. The girls are making in newspapers across the country as well. How cool!!!!!
