It's been a while huh?

It has been forever since my last post and that is horrible on my part. I have had a difficult year- I lost my brother back in May and spent some time with my family in Connecticut. As you can imagine, Riley has grown since then.. haha. I will make a picture post soon. I wish I had been blogging, but I sort of went into hibernation after my brother's death. I think I'm ready to rejoin the world. It may be a slow process but one in progress, nonetheless. Feels good to be back. Sigh!
