Bumps and Bruses

This was quite a day!! The twins have fought all day. Sarah was extra whinny today. Nothing was done fast enough or to her liking. Jacob, 3, insisted on playing in an ant bed, twice. (Yes, fire ants are still active in the winter.) Sarah was jumping and hit her chin on a kitchen drawer that was pulled out. Later she decided to pull a 2 liter of Sprite off of the counter, she wanted some of the "green juice." Well, the "green juice" fell and the lid part of the bottle hit her in the forehead. She now has a little knot. FYI: a pack of frozen peas works well for an ice pack.

Joel, 8, came home from his grandparents house without a hat and coat unbuttoned. . . it was in the mid thirties today!

To top it off I have a purple bruise on my thigh where I hit it on the CORNER of the end table TWICE! I just got rid of the bruise on my head from the hatch back on the van!

Two things from yesterday that I forgot to report. . . Sarah, miss outspoken, told an older lady, that we saw while shopping, that she did "not have much hair!" She also wanted to know why my father had a big stomach, "Does he have a baby in it?" She then proceeded to talk about having babies in stomachs. She went on to talk about babies in my stomach!! WHAT? She frightened me with that one! I finally understood that she was thinking out loud about her and her brothers having been in my stomach. I love my children dearly, but all I need is another. . .

I am excited to call this one a day. I am, as always, thankful to the Lord God for everyone in my life. I have been asked numerous times how I do it day in and day out. My response is always the same. . . "God gives us the grace to handle what we have to. I have been blessed with family and friends who are more than willing to help!" Thank you Mama for all you do. I could not make it without you!

As always, I am Triple Blessed!
