Mom, I should have taken your airborn!!!

Man, it's been rough over here. Little did I know on Friday this was just going to get worse and worse and worse {I'm sorry Angela that you had to go through this too!!!}. This has been the most painful experience ever, it's right up there with recovering from a c-section. Cheapskate me even went into urgent care on Saturday because I was in so much pain I thought there is no way this is just a "common cold"... well, surprise! I've been living on pain pills just to take a little of the edge off, but it's been horrible. Today, I think I'm starting to finally see that there will be an end to this horrible raw throat... I did eat some eggs for breakfast and was able to swallow them... so that is a good sign!!!

Trent has been amazing. He took care of Tru all day Saturday and Sunday so that I could lay in agony by myself. I'm so grateful for that, because I don't know how I would have been able to take care of Tru by myself on those days.

And my sweet little angel boy...

He looks a little goofy here, but he's always making me smile so that's okay...

Tru is adorable... when I would come out into the living room to lay on the couch he would come over to me and lay his head on my lap. He would also get so excited to see me and if I even cracked a smile at him to let him know I was still alive he would get super excited and laugh. On Sunday I was laying in bed and he snuck into my room and just stood at the edge of the bed staring at me. He then but his cute little hand on my leg and gave me a little encouraging pat. What one year old does this? He is a very sweet, compassionate boy. As cheesy as this sounds, he has been the only thing that has made me smile these past few days because I've been so amazed at how sweet and loving he is.



This has been very frustrating because it's DECEMBER PEOPLE!!! There are so many different crafts and things that I want to do... I have to accept the reality that by loosing a week I probably wont be able to get everything done that I've wanted to. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that by.... Thursday I'll be feeling well enough to get back on the horse and get the things done that I need to do. I'm so grateful that I'm starting to feel a little better... health is everything! Thank you all for your helpful suggestions... I think that I used about all of them!!!
