Introducing Alivia








My life changed in ways I could not imagine on October 7, 2007. Alivia Jade Kehoe was born in Bronx, New York to my oldest daughter Erin and Steven Kehoe. She had a difficult entry into the world, but it was only a harbinger to what life held for her. She is hearing impaired. Strangely, when something like this occurs you go through the grieving process. At 6 months she was fitted for her first set of hearing aids and began speech therapy. Although I would love desperately to hear her call me Nana, my heart melts every time she learns a new word in sign language. She is beautiful, smart and perfect in every other way. I look forward to sharing her milestones with all who are interested.
