We’ve spent the past two weeks with at least one member of our family sick, which makes for not so exciting times here, especially when it’s Mom who gets sick. That wasn’t so fun. My plan is to do a sort of “12 Days of Christmas” thing and celebrate Valentine’s Day afterwards, starting today.
But, I thought I’d show you the two early celebrations I got to have:
I got to go see Wicked with two of my bestest friends, and yes BESTEST is a word. Do you know how many shots it took before we were able to get the kids to not stand in the picture?
If I look all rosy and pink it’s because I was running a rather high fever and thoroughly amused Tami and Tara with my rather…….. unusual non-sequitors.
Here’s my armload full of goodies from the kids. Princess gave me chocolate strawberries and a cupcake (with hints that she likes that too), Superman gave me a bear (“It says I love you Mommy”), and Batman gave me the balloon and flowers (“You can plant them, aren’t they pretty?”).
I have spent the past 3 days with all 3 of them bringing me my presents to make use of. “Do you want to cuddle your bear Mommy?” “Can I bring you your balloon?”
It’s so adorable. I am so very VERY BLESSED. I will spare you any maudlin thoughts or beliefs, but aren’t they just so adorable?
That is SO sweet!!! Hope you feel better soon!
So sweet! I hope you are all feeling better. We are in the middle of sickness here too.
They are adorable! And so sweet they are wanting to share your presents! 🙂
I'm sorry you were sick – but yes, the children's gifts were very sweet!
Very precious. Hope you feel better. Like you said, it's never fun when Mama is sick!

You got quite a haul! How sweet! I know how you feel…we have all been sick all weekend. We are all exhausted.
Yes, yes they are…
(And I believe I would bare through a fever too, if I got to go see Wicked…how fun!)
You are indeed blessed! That is so sweet.
Sorry to hear you have been sick! You certainly are blessed! What a sweet bunch of babes you have!
Sorry you are sick. Look at how much love is in your home!
So glad you got to get out of the plague house and hang with your bestest friends.
You are very blessed indeed. Happy Valentine's Day!!
Isn't this age the best? Your kids are super sweet – and they also give awesome presents 🙂
