*Yes, this is our wedding photo* On Monday we celebrated our anniversary in prison. Sounds lovely huh? It made me happy to see Lee and get a hug and a kiss. Since December, I haven’t had a kiss. James says kisses are just old slobber and scrunched up lips, but I happen to like them. [...]

Tonight I was sitting on the bed waiting for my son to finish up his bathroom duties so I could tuck him in. I was thinking about our pleasant evening we spent with friends. I glanced up to see the time and my eyes drifted over a photo of my husband and myself being silly. [...]

My sister asked me to take my niece’s 4 year photos while they’re here. My niece doesn’t like having her photo taken, so I’m trying to sneak photos in here and there. Here are the 1st batch. We hope to get more at the park tomorrow.

Did you know the prison has a dress code for visitors? I find it amusing that the prison of all places wants people to dress modestly yet women wear awful things to church! I’m reviewing the rules for visiting Lee. I should be able to visit him on Monday. The prison he’s in is closer [...]
