Thanks for the birthday wishes Pam.

The boys and I were out of town most of the day, but came back to find that D9 and H had bought steaks to grill for dinner, a beautiful bunch of flowers and a gift certificate to a day spa!

Update:

Tough week as I woke up with a killer sore throat and swollen glands on Sunday. I am still pretty sore today but have managed to take it easy a little bit.

My H ended up taking MIL to ER last night. She was confused yesterday. We hope it is just her meds. They kept her overnight but didn't find anything. Now he is at a different hospital with her because his aunt had a major stroke yesterday afternoon and it isn't looking good.

I am just trying to provide him with love and support. We took a nap (and yes ) this afternoon while he waited for his mom to rest prior to going to the hospital.

He is coming home to take the kids to ball practice so I can rest some more. That is unless something else develops at the hospital.

We just keep on building our partnership in this thing called parenting, life and love. It is still surreal at times. I continue to work on the goals I set for myself when all of this started.

Will do more journaling later but have to run as S6 and his friend are tormenting S3 - I hear crying....
