Reality


What kids think of when they think of a Tonsillectomy.


What I think of when I think of a Tonsillectomy...........

A week and a half later.  Mom still sleeping downstairs on a mattress with the two boys.  Not sleeping actually because every two hours one of the boys is up crying.

I'm told days 5-9 are the worst.  Today is day 9.  Tomorrow better be full of rainbows, unicorns, raindrops on roses, and whiskers on kittens...........  

On the bright side, I've been getting a ton of reading and knitting done!  Photos to come of the projects I've knit and completed.

    1. You do. The both of you almost make it look like an appealing thing. I know it's not, of course. Oh, poor ducklings. Poor mama who just wants to make their pain disappear.

    2. I have to agree that you look like you were made for that kind of all encompassing love! So sweet.
      On the bright side, I can't wait to see what you made! Oh, and pictures of the unicorns galivanting under the rainbow. :-)

    3. You ladies are sweet. Last night was another all nighter. The bags under my eyes are getting so big they look like I'm packing for a month long trip! :D

      Things are getting better during the day though. I'm encouraged. Mr. M went back to school today. Just waiting for Mr. J now.
