Yesterday and Today

Work yesterday wasn't too bad at all. The scheduled allowed for some down time and we all enjoyed every minute of it. We had a day full of laughs. It got off work around 4:30 and then picked up the boys. When I picked Lane up the sitter told me that she was amazed at how Lane responded to people in uniform. She said that when her daughter walked into the house the other day Lane started crying and wouldn't leave her alone. He wanted her to hold him and Lane did not stop crying until she picked him up. The sitter said that today when one of the other kid's parent walked in and they were in uniform he did the same thing. She says she is pretty sure that Lane hasn't forgotten about his Daddy! When we got to the house I went straight to cooking dinner. After we ate Lane was super tired and I was not feeling too good for some reason so we all went and laid down in the bed. Logan watched cartoons and Lane tried his best not to fall asleep but he couldn't help it. I just kept feeling worse. My stomach was killing me. I figured that once I woke up I would feel fine. Unfortunately I didn't. I just felt weird I guess you would say. I went to work and then I started feeling hot. Not really temperature hot but just like I was going to start sweating. Then I got a phone call that Logan was sick with diarrhea and I would need to go get him. So Lisa took over my surgery that I was about to go into and I took off to get Logan. When I got there to pick him up he seemed to feel ok. He and I came home and went straight to bed. I slept and he laid in the bed and watched cartoons until he fell asleep. I slept from about 12 til 4 when the phone rang! When we got up I went and got Lane. As usual he was happy to see me. After I got his coat on he started reaching for the sitter like he wanted her hold him. Which made me feel really good. He likes her! Neither Logan or I wanted much for dinner. Logan asked for cereal and I wasn't sure if I wanted anything. So far I have had potato sticks and that seems to have settled my stomach. I'm going to try to eat something else just nothing to much. Logan on the other hand seems to be fine. So more trips to the bathroom since we have been home, thankfully.

I talked with Aaron yesterday morning. He was just calling to say hi and see how we were doing. He seemed to be in good mood and doing well.

I did want to share a conversation that Logan and I had on the way home today. He is always full of questions. I was asking him about his teachers and which one he liked. He said Ms. Ina was is favorite. Then he asked if I had a teacher. I said no that I had a boss. "What's a boss mom." Well I informed him that the boss tells people what to do and makes sure that everyone is doing their job. He says, "mom, can I be the boss someday." I told him sure that he could be whatever he wanted to be; he would just have to work hard. Then he says, "Mom are you the boss." I said no and he wanted to know why. He said, "mom, do you just not work hard enough!" I said no that I just didn't want to be the boss. I was happy just doing what I do now. He just didn't understand why I wouldn't want to be the boss!

I have a couple of prayer request that I would like for you to remember. I got news that Matthew was not feeling to well. They did a culture on him and are awaiting the results. Mom could not remember what it was they were looking for but if it comes back one thing then it could be really hard on him. They said that it wasn't an infection though and has nothing to do with his head. So please pray the he will heal from what ever is bothering him. My other request is for my Grandmother. She found out today that she has a cancerous tumor in her breast. She has a few options that she is thinking through so please pray that with God's help she will make the right decision. She goes back to the doctor next Monday so by then she hopes to have decided for sure what her course of treatment will be.

Thanks so much and have a great week!
