My profile

My name is Mary. I'm originally from NC and living in the Chicago suburbs. I work as a Manager for a Logistics company and I enjoy what I do. I am pregnant with my 3rd child - I am a very high risk pregnancy. My first is going to be 19 this year and my second was born at 22 weeks almost 4 years ago, he is now my little angel in Heaven, but the minutes I had with him in my arms can never be replaced and are always cherished. I am married to a wonderful man who is very supportive and as excited as I am about this pregnancy. I believe in living life for each day, I have had many losses in life, but for all the losses there has always been more joys. I truly believe people should enjoy each day you have and live life to the fullest. You never know what tomorrow will bring.
