The Baby Is Growing Up

Montco Mommy's youngest soon won't be so young.

I'm so sorry for your loss....we have all made dumb mistakes especially as young people. As a mom in her 30's, looking back I can't believe I made it through some of the crazy things I did as a young person. She is so beautiful, I can't imagine losing my child. Her loss has affected an entire community, obviously she's larger than life, even in death. May God comfort you and your family during …   more ›
