I am grateful for thermometers, sippy cups,  simple baby medicines likes gravol and tylenol, ice, electrolyte additives for water, laundry machines, baby wipes, Treehouse TV channel, soothers and  the telephone.

 

My kids are quite sick.They are feverish,  not eating, not drinking, vomiting, fairly immobile and lethergic, as well as congested. It's tough taking care of them. It's nasty cleaning up vomit and doing pukey laundry all day long, but I sooooo feel for them and their hurting bodies and inabilty to accurately voice what's ailing them. I worry and wonder... 

but at least I have all these modern day comforts.. I feel for mothers past and present that have helplessly had to watch thier babies get sicker and sicker and not know what to do, or even have the ability to DO anything.  As sick as my kids are...I am grateful...

and I know they will get better....

 

here's a photo I took when Eryn was VERY sick, and Aiden wasn't sick YET. He was a handful and when taking a photo of Eryn immobile on the couch, he had to be a part of it too!

 

 

As much as I  LOVE facebook  (or as my girlfriend calls it; 'crackbook').. I can't use facebook to create a memory album for my kids, the way I can using 'live spaces'

so...

I will endeavor to return frequently to post amusing stories of my kids childhood...which will automatically be posted to crackbook anyway...

 

Welcome back, AMy

 

 

p.s.  heres a pic of Eryn and a FANTASTIC tower she carefully balanced and built..it's truely an amazing lil tower..precariously balanced...
