Upper St. Clair Patch Editor Returns

I'm baaaack!

For about 12 weeks, all of my focus has been on . He's brought so much joy to my life.

Mason was born on June 15 and has since doubled in size and fun. When he wakes up in the morning or from a nap, he gives me a big, gummy grin. It's the most adorable sight to see!

He loves listening to music. Not classical music, he's more into up-tempo, top 40 music (which is hilarious). So much so that at times, it's the only way to get him to relax and fall asleep.

Speaking of sleep, Mason's starting to sleep for longer periods of time and he's eating a little less often. All of this will help me get back to work after a wonderful maternity leave. I've missed writing and seeing everyone!

First of all, I must give a huge thanks to Guest Editor Harry Funk who has held down the fort while I've been out of commission. I hope you've enjoyed reading his coverage as much as I have.
