Sorry it’s been awhile. I came down with the flu for about a week. Boy, was this the worst time to get sick!
We finally found a pentecostal/charismatic church. It’s 40 minutes away which is quite a bit when your last two churches were 10 and 2o minutes away but it gives Paul and I some [...]

Sorry it’s been a few days but there’s been very little to report. Thankfully, my mother-in-law is still with us. Her vitals have been good and stable and she’s been awake.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from the Petroskis!

My Rock, My Fortress
This year has been a year of incredible ups and downs. Our lives have changed drastically from the way 2008 began. Most of you know my struggles with PPD made it clear to me that I had to leave my job and focus on my health and my home, my husband and my beautiful baby [...]
