Here’s my laugh of the week. Thanks, Luke!

Tonight as I was checking my yahoo mail, their usual homepage displayed this:


For some reason Luke had a lot of interest in this picture. He turned to me, smiled and started shouting, "Oooooh, Look!!! Mama! Papa! Mama! Papa!" and pointing to the lovely candidates.

Thank you, sweetheart, for making me laugh. I really needed it tonight.

BUT...

You are the biggest stinker of all time for comparing me to Hilary! Hopefully I still have a couple of decades to go before I look like that!

Maybe not. :(

This is So Unfair.

We had some complications with the baby and needed to go into surgery. The hospital gave us a call and said that we had to come immediately. It was quite an emotional afternoon to say the least.

I cried all afternoon. I couldn't hold A because I couldn't feed him for approximately 8 hours since he needed to have general anesthesia. Words cannot describe my feelings. I'm happy that we know what we're dealing with. I'm thankful that this is something that can be fixed with surgery to some extent. But it was just so sad.

No baby should have to go through this, but I know it will help in the end.




We're all resting at home. It's been a rough 24 hours. Please keep us in your prayers.

Truth.

This is Grandma Vera:


Isn't she lovely? I don't care what you think.

She is.

Even at 90.

Even with a tinge of dementia.

She's still as lovely as ever.



This is Grandma Vera with my boy. They have such a special connection and my heart aches thinking about the day when he won't be able to visit her anymore.




It also aches with the thought that one day she won't be in my life anymore. We love you. I hope you remember that. I think I'll remind you again tomorrow somehow, just in case you've forgotten.
