My Life as a Lawyer's Wife: Happy Birthday, Toni!

Today is my mother-in-law's 63rd birthday, a birthday we are so happy to be celebrating. The end of this month will mark two years since Toni's stroke that left us all feeling defeated and hopeless, all but certain that there would be no more birthdays to celebrate.

But Toni is far too awesome for that sort of thing, and she proved everyone (doctors included) wrong. Through her own strength and the added support, prayers and love from so many friends and family, Toni woke up and continued on - and we are so thankful to have had her around for these last two years. She has made great improvements and has been able to be with us for so many great things, including holidays, Kelley's graduation, and soon, the birth of her first grandbaby. What a miracle! Toni rocks!

Happy birthday, Toni! We love you very much!

**A NOTE ABOUT PICTURES**

Hello, blog visitor!

Yes, I know. Most of my pictures are blurry. When I wrote all my posts (YEARS ago now), I hosted my photos on Photobucket because they offered free photo hosting for blogs. Since then, they have changed their policies and no longer will host photos for free (even for those accounts that signed up under those terms). Thus, all my old photos hosted that way are now blurred and watermarked. Unfortunately, I do not have the time to go back and change the hosting location of all the pictures to fix this right now.

So, my apologies. If there is a post that you would particularly like to see a photo from, you may email me at alawyerswife@gmail.com. Alternatively, most of my photos are also posted on my Shutterfly share site at mylifeasalawyerswife.shutterfly.com. They are organized in albums by date, so make note of the date of the post in question and you should be able to find what you are looking for.

Sorry for the inconvenience, and thank you for visiting!

Welcome

Hi, I'm Meghan! I'm happily married to Eric, my high school sweetheart, and the proud mother of our four-year-old daughter, Ellie and two-year-old son, E.J. Our family (also including our chihuahua mix, Achilles) is currently in transition: we recently left behind Eric's law career and our home in New York City to return to our roots in Florida as he begins a new career in teaching through Teach for America. As for me, I am primarily a stay-at-home mom to Ellie and E.J., but I also do occasional jury consulting work. The original purpose of this blog was to keep our families up-to-date on our lives from a distance, as well as to document our life in the Big Apple, but now it chronicles our new adventure. Welcome!
