Here Comes the Sun
Last night when I got home there was still some light outside, and this morning walking into work I could see some light over the mountains.
I MIGHT ACTUALLY GET TO SEE SUNLIGHT AGAIN AFTER ALL!
I miss it.
My Five:
1. My boys are feeling better. They are keeping food down.
2. The purse my sis gave to me for Christmas. Liz I LOVE it!
3. Projects at work. I definitely do not have a monotonous job. Every day is different. I'm never bored!
4. A good night's sleep. No need for Diet Coke today.
5. Setting apart blessings. Really you guys, I have a new calling that's not really in my comfort/knowledge/desire zone. I'm a little freaked out.
BONUS: My husband, who gave me a blessing the other night. I'm lucky that he's worthy and willing to help me out! Love you Darin!

Up-Chuck-a-Rama
ALERT: This might be too graphic of information for those of you who are not mothers yet. However, it's not meant to deter you from being a mother...
My kids have had a flu shot every year of their lives. And they've never had the flu...
until now.
My daughter had it on Sunday, but not so bad. My boys, however, happened to get it at 12:30 am and threw up almost every half hour. Poor kids. They're not used to needing a "Buddy Bowl" with them every second, just in case. By morning my room smelled of carpet cleaner and Lysol.
Thanks to may husband, who filled the dishwasher at 2 am with dirty throw up bowls, and the dryer with clean clothes. Then he went to the store to buy medicine and a supply of Diet Coke (so I could make it through the day!).
I'm also grateful that I didn't poke my last born son's eye out with my toe this morning when I tripped over his head (he decided to just spend the night by the bathroom, I guess).
I'm also grateful for:
1. Darin canceling his jobs today to stay home with sick kids.
2. Children's Advil and Tylenol.
3. My friend Diet Coke.
4. My sweet boys, who kept apologizing for the fact that they were throwing up.
5. I'm glad my kitties didn't throw up, too, like one of them did when my daughter threw up on Sunday.
