Need something wonderful to read?

Then look no further than here, and gear up for this mommy blogger's CNN debut here.

I can't remember if I posted Nella's birth story here 5 weeks ago here, but I found my way there right after her birth, and it is amazing to follow every day since. This young mom is basically my age, a stunning photographer, uplifted spirit, has 2 gorgeous daughters, husband, step sons, and is now redefining her new journey of motherhood the second time around with honesty, love, laughter, appreciation, and courage.

Nella's birth story is here. Settle in for the read. The pictures make it come alive, and well..just TRY not to fall in love with this family!

And...watch CNN March 16th for the story. I think the online video will be posted, and I'll repost it here too!

Here's to life's surprises....and how to find the beauty and perfection in them while not being afraid to be honest along the way!
