Arriving to a decision to not have children was not an easy one, and I wouldn't say it was a natural decision when society often tells us we should and most people desire to have children so there's often a bit of confusion on why someone wouldn't.

Our 13th pajama Christmas party! Can you believe it? I can't. I never imagined that after our first Christmas party which was not a pajama party, that we would continue this tradition every year.

My heart is bursting with my love for the Lilly brand and their generosity of support.
