I'm Kel, a mid- twenties wife and mother. I moved to the US from Canada in 2003 to be with my husband, and became a dual citizen a few years later. In 2006, our first son Eric was born. In 2008, our second son Daniel was born. Born a month early with congenital CMV, Danny was a very sick little boy. He lost his hearing when he was a few weeks old, and we are working to give it back.
