Coming up for air...

Nolan is finally better after what is turning out to be a viral thing causing fevers. Before that Mark had a nasty Strep infection (sandwiched in there was the Christmas concert!).... Before that was what turned out to be pneumonia for Caleb! He was not that sick so that was a real surprise but I'm so thankful that his doctor had the instinct to have him go for a chest x-ray on a Friday afternoon.

All I can say is wow. Praise the Lord for 1. Good medical care 2. Insurance (as thin as it may seem) 3. My mom who stayed with us last week and REALLY helped out during Mark working like a mad dog while sick as a dog and I was crazy enough to sing in the concert too! (It was fun though and a great, great music set as well). 4. Mark who is a hard worker and loves me even though I can get a little (don't laugh) stressed out.

Today was a day I could have really gotten things done but as usual I get stuck doing something silly like trying like mad to figure out the label thing in Word. I know, Emy, get with the 20th century... wait! It's the 21st century! That's my problem. I'm a century behind. Why was that so hard anyway? I can cut and paste with the rest of them (maybe not the best of them). Why were there a few cells not printing? Don't I sound official? I can't stand it when I can't figure something out. Well, tons of time later.... wa la. Not figured out per se (what does per se mean anyway?) but shifted around and deleted the virused cells and replaced with new ones that worked. I felt like a scientist in the most mommified way, mind you. With the baby schmutz on my jeans as my lab coat.

WHAT????? NINE DAYS TIL CHRISTMAS???? It's a good thing we don't do too many gifts around here.

Fevers, Milkshakes, and Theology

Day 2 of fevers for Sir Littles (Caleb... I know it's an oxymoron with him). He's acting sort of ok playing at times, eating of course, sleeping so-so, but coughing a fair amount with congestion and he's whiney. I'd be too with fevers like that and not feeling well. Poor little man. If he has a fever in the morning, I've been instructed to call back to Dr. Day.

I'm tired and in need of a bubble bath. Coming up!

Mark is in the full swing getting ready for the Christmas concert in addition to the Sunday morning worship sets.

Nolan had a great day at school. I let him have a milkshake afterward really because I've been holding off on the Peppermint Chocolate Chip from Chic-Fil-A long enough now and well I just NEEDED one. And it was go oo ood. Tonight when tucking Nolan into bed he asked me if Jesus sins (NO) and how was He made. I've been waiting for that one but have forgotten to look up the best way to answer it. I just told him He was the beginning (as in Alpha and Omega), so anyway, yeah. If anyone has any ideas let me know!
