Tests

I had an experience that happened yesterday and today with a relative that nearly broke my spirit. And obviously, on a blog like this I cannot go into details... But I'll say that I am worn out emotionally, but have made it through to the other side. I think the air is cleared up now. I am so relieved. Now, I just have the aftermath of terrible migraine headaches. I know that every family goes through "bumps in the road;" I just hate when there are not any warning signs before you hit them dead on. Anyhow...

Today my nieces and my children ventured out to Walmart again for crafts and food. The girls decorated flower pots today with felt stickers and got to pick out their own flower to plant in it. I thought it was fun. Haleah said, "I want to do a crap!" ("crap" apparently is her word for "craft"). I thought that was funny. My nieces went to play with the triplets, this afternoon, who live behind me. My girls and I played in our toddler pool after nap. Bekah has been sleeping most of the day. She seems to alternate on me. One day it seems like she sleeps all day long. The next day it seems like she never sleeps. Crazy baby.

Kaleah is still clingy and fussy, getting over her unknown ailment/illness. She is slowly getting a little better day by day though; however, I'm concerned that her appetite hasn't picked up much. She decided to step into the kitty's water bowl again, as soon as I slipped her into her footed pajamas. I looked at her as she came around the corner to the living room and had to really think long and hard how on Earth she managed to get her feet soaking wet. Argh! That child is obsessed with the kitty's water, food and litter.

Okay, now the kids are in bed and I'm trying to wind myself down emotionally and physically. I think I'll turn in early tonight. I told David tonight that I can't keep a brain in my thought. I meant to say "I can't keep a thought in my brain." See? I'm going crazy!
