Life With Us...

It hits me in sudden waves of realization. He is such a little person! He acts so grown-up. Good manners. Polite. Helpful. Considerate. Thoughtful. Caring. It's amazing… He is definitely not my baby boy anymore… the toddler stage is long past… he is 100% little boy! And sometimes "little" doesn't seem the appropriate description. He makes us laugh with his proclamation of being "a grown-up" and what "grown-ups" do/like and don't do/like… he's not grown-up yet, but he is on his way, and will most likely get there before I am fully ready for it…

Cough, cough, cough… cry… snore, snore, snore… that's what I hear right now. One sweet child is finally fever free after a week. His voice is still raspy, and he still has a cough, but "all better" is just around the corner. His sister, probably has a few more days to go… fortunately she doesn't tend to get as sick as he does, but she is more likely to invade our sleep. Which is only a problem if I need to function the next day. lol Tonight I go to sleep praising the Lord that they are both on the way to well, their sickest moments of this virus seem to be past, and hopefully in a couple days all will be back to normal-whatever that is :)

I can't remember missing the sun so… my favorite season has always been winter. I love the rain and the clouds. The sunshine hurts my eyes and the heat renders me useless. The cold does hurt, but the mellowness of sunlight filtered thru the clouds has always been a wonderful almost cozy-feeling thing to me… until this winter. This year I am tired of being cold… tired of snow (even if it only sticks for a few hours-SO thankful I live where the snow stays on the mountains!)… tired of the wet… maybe I'm just tired. LOL Maybe because it felt like summer never really arrived last year. We had a break in the rain and clouds, but it never really got HOT. I am not looking forward to the allergies of Spring, or the extreme heat of summer, but a break in the clouds will be nice… for a few weeks :)

Not exactly sure how this will go. I got so used to blogging with the other blog, that I miss doing it. lol. I don't really know what I will write about, but maybe just a journal about life… or random thoughts that pass thru my mind… or something or nothing. lol.
