Snow Again

A warm week had melted all but the largest, filthy, plowed-up piles of snow, but today we awoke to this. The kids are still in their pajamas. I’m catching up on my enormous to do list, focusing on the items that can be accomplished with a sweet little strawberry on my lap. Thankfully there are quite a few in this category. :-)

    What a precious new baby girl!!! I especially loved the purple princess shot – well, then again, I loved the lime green Christmas outfit on her, too – goodness, I don’t think it matter what she wears, she’s a precious gift from God. So happy for you 3 – blessings, Evanne

    It looks like her “strawberry” is fading a little. Is it just the light? She’s sooo sweet in this pic.

    Yeah, I’ve noticed it changes shades in different circumstances. I think that’s because it’s a vascular birthmark, caused by extra capillaries, not extra pigment. So it changes when her bloodflow changes (it shows up more when she’s too warm or upset).
    Because it’s so large, and in a very prominent place, the pediatrician has referred us to the dermatology department at Children’s Hospital for laser treatment. I plan to blog in more detail about the situation and treatment process, in case it might be useful to other parents.
