Insurance

Congratulations!! You took a pregnancy test and it came out positive. Then you scheduled a consult and tour at our birth center. And while you visited us, we put together an estimate for your insurance coverage. Most people really don't understand how their insurance plans actually work. I mean, they understand that they have insurance but they often don't understand why they have to pay anything out of pocket or a how we come up with the estimate, so we thought we would help break this down for you.  But first: there are different ways people obtain insurance plans. Some employers include insurance plans are a benefit to working with their company. Employers will contract with different insurance companies and each employer might offer different plans to different employees, so just because you have Cigna, as an example, it doesn't mean all Cigna plans are the same. Also, some people purchase their own insurance plans directly from insurance companies or from the Marketpla

Tears to my eyes

I am in the Target parking lot. Putting stuff in my trunk. Just another day. Kind of annoyed that I have to run errands on my day off instead of riding my Harley. A young man gets out of the car next to mine and is on the passenger side next to me FOREVER. I can't pull my car out. Then I realize what he is doing, he's putting his newly born daughter in a sling to wear get into the store. He apologizes, saying he's new to this. His wife is in the hospital and he needs to shop. I help him adjust the baby (he's actually done quite well on his own) and wish him well as he goes on his way. He appears to be my own sons age. I don't know how bad it is for them, what condition his wife is in, but I know what I saw of this young man, this father, that he will take care of his family without hesitation or doubt. Happy early Fathers Day to each of you new daddy's that I am blessed to know.

That is great! I love moments in life like that. One of my favorite pictures of matt is him carrying Mattox around in the Moby wrap. Don't find men like that often.
