One Week Down

One Week Down

It’s hard to believe that one week ago today The Fifth Element entered this world.  Before I couldn’t imagine her in it.  Today, I already cannot fathom the idea of her not being part of our family.  In just a few quick years we went from a family of two, plus one insane dog, to [...]
