Welcome.   However did you find your way here?  I am both flattered and humbled that you chose to visit and read my blog.  All my writings began as an outlet to the emotional joys, pains, and challenges of raising a daughter with spina bifida.  If you want to talk about spina bifida or pick my brain about years of caregiving, please send me an email.  I'd love to chat with you.  🙂  You can read all about my daughter Amanda in my book, "Amanda, Perfectly Made."  The book shares with you twenty-nine of our thirty-one years together.  Amanda went home to heaven on October 12, 2014.   It’s been a tumultuous journey made possible only by being hand in hand with God. Life can present some difficult roads to travel, but Just Laurel has learned to trust God and to find joy along the way.
