georgia's vice

you know we all have one, georgia's just happens to be sugar. not just any sugar, the marshmallows from the lucky charms box. she begs daily and nightly for this sweet little fix and this morning she found the box all by herself and i walked in just in time to have her turn and say the shmeshmellows are all gone!

getting ready for easter

found this little hat at target today, couldn't resist! and yes, i love to kiss on those cheeks all day!

trapped

do you ever sit and wonder about life around you moving on? i mean in a strange and foreign way that as you sit inside the four protective walls of your home that life goes on? hmm, i suppose this thought would seem odd if you had not been on my sofa with me for the past few days. this thought has haunted me as i have been tending to sick babies. three of them, all at the same time, crammed on the couch coughing, sneezing, sniffing and wheezing all over me. don't get me wrong, i love to cuddle, hold and make feel better but we have had so much of it this year it's becoming quite ridiculous. with andrew in school full day and georgia at preschool we have liquidated our savings and have opened a walgreens on our kitchen counter. well, maybe that was a little exaggerated but, you get the point. it surprises me when friends are out and about, grocery shopping, having lunch and not wiping noses, holding sad feverish babies and measuring out yellow cough syrup. i am so looking forward to this winter season being taken over by spring. to allow warm breezes in through open windows, let my kids run around barefoot and breathe warm air deep into their weakened lungs. countless doctors visits, a few specialists lined up and a 3 am hospital visit have trapped me in my home. there is a rumor the sun will shine on this rain soaked desert this weekend and my heart is full of hope that a warm breeze might take away some of this sickness, and some of my cabin fever. either that or i'm going to have to look into tenting the house and lysol bombs.
