Yeah, it's been a while again! Things have been ok, a few little sicknesses, another scare with Victoria but things seem to be OK now.
Oh, I am mother to the kissing bandit! I would rather not elaborate at this time as it is a frustrating subject for me! :)
This week is midterms and everyone must be doing well, they are all happy....except Mom who has to drive back and forth to the school numerous times each day! Tomorrow is the last day....although I have to admit, I am really loving having at least one more home with me at all times. I really do miss them when they go to school but please don't tell them that, it will go straight to their heads!
I am laughing here. This house is nuts! John is sitting on the couch next to Alex who is playing Call of Duty, Shaina yells in from the other room she's going to take a shower and John yells to Alex "get out of there, you are going to die!" Shaina is like what!? Of course John can't hear her yell back but I can from where I am sitting. So Shaina yells, what are you saying!? John yells, "Get out of there, that place is toxic!" So now Shaina is confused but still she doesn't come...she just yells "WHAT!?" I am like Shaina...just take your shower already, your father is talking to Alex....um, DUH! LOL
We got a package in the mail today! If you read back in my posts, you will see that Nikolas has a very special blanket! A good friend made this blanket for him from across the miles. His blanket came home from the hospital with him! It has been with him through sickness and in health, good times and bad....it has been to multiple states! He loves his blankie and there is no substitute (God knows I tried to find one as he's getting bigger and it's really not covering him any longer). I feel bad at night when I would go in, cover him over but he throws that blanket right off and only blankie is still there. So we decided to ask him if we had the SAME person make one, would that be acceptable. He was very receptive and patiently waited and it came today! Thank you Ellyn! You are a very special blankie maker! There is no substitute! His picture is above with it! He was so excited when he walked through the door, saw the box and found out it was a new blankie....although he did say, "I can sleep with both, right Mom?" I said sure...I mean you can't take away someone's best friend! That certainly would not get me "Mother of the Year"! So above is a picture. He loves it. She chose the pattern and it couldn't have been more perfect, he is so happy with it! :) She is such a sweet person and so talented! Thank you so much Ellyn for taking the time to make a bigger blankie! My Mom and I were talking today! The next order will probably come in for a queen sized when he gets married! :) I hope you are going to be up for the task!
