Life and Times of the 4 B's
http://lifeandtimesofthe4bs.blogspot.com/
This blog is dedicated to my family as a way to share our history and to document memories. My kids are a dream come true for me (see January, The Best Days of Our Lives), and I've found blogging to be a great way to remember all the magnificent things they say and do. We are a unique, fun, special family, and I thank God every single day for the blessing of my 3 wonderful B's.
