Thank you for your inspiring words, I needed them!
Karma,
Thank you for the compliment! I am feeling much better.
Today I took SND20 to a birthday party at 10am and looked for some winter clothes for our trip to the land of snow and ice (North Dakota). I didn't have much luck finding winter clothes at the stores I went to. When I picked her up at 1pm we went out to eat. Then we went back to the thrift store and found her a nice winter coat, some sweaters and long sleeve shirts. We laughed about being the only two people hunting for winter clothes in Houston. The temp was 75 here today. Yesterday or the day before the windchill was - 29 where my mom lives.
Tonight we have been packing our suitcases. She is excited to see her grandma, uncles, aunts and meet a cousin for the first time.
