| Yeah, it's wonderful how kids can perk us up. I was feeling
really down last weekend, mostly feeling like a failure because I
couldn't keep up my full-time career and full-time motherhood.
Going part time is definitely the right decision, but the change
hasn't been easy.
So I sat down to write something in my writing notebook, which I
hadn't picked up for a while -- and found Steven had been
scribbling in it. That was just about the last straw. I started
to get up to go really yell at him, when I saw that what he had
written was --
"I love you Mama" and a big red heart.
Everything seems much more worthwhile now.

| Definitely. I have to get a tonsillectomy soon due to reoccurrent
tonsilitis. I explained to my children (ages 5 1/2 and 2) that "mama
will be going into the hospital for one day and will be in bed for a
few days." The 2-year old really doesn't comprehend but my 5-year old
says, "I'll take care of you, mama and I'll help Daddy around the house
(which she already does by vacuuming, cleaning the tubs, wiping down
glass, etc.). She's a great help to my husband and I. She really
worries about things that occur around her.
And not just a few months ago, my husband and I were going under huge
stress and my daughter started showing it at school with withdrawals.
That kicked us in the head that we weren't paying enough attention to
our children. We straightened up real quick. Now she is back to her
normal, cheerful self with her moments but normal growing up stuff.

| When I was going through some relationship blues lately, Alex came home
from kindergarten with a handmade present for me: "Momm's Happiness
Book." Pictures of rainbows and happy suns (sniff!) <:'D
