For those of you new to Rachel's Plan Bee, the birth of our son several years ago allowed us to explore a whole new world forcing us to slow down and have a deep appreciation for the simple things in life.

Once a year, people around the world celebrate the gift of human beings that are born with a little extra spark.

Today we celebrate our son!
