Who is going to take care of me?

Still sick. Yes, sometimes it just hangs around and doesn't go away. At least I was able to sneak a few winks in while Kadence took a nap and before Krischan got home. Jakob laid next to me and watched a movie so I could rest. Wasn't the most restful sleep, but I had to take what I could get.

So why isn't anyone taking care of me? Making me chicken noodle soup, tucking me into bed, shutting my door so I can sleep better. Hmmph. I guess on some days that is what it means to be a mom. To suck it up and act like you are doing well so that your kids have a dinner made, books read to them, and someone to chase them around the house.

But today, I really don't want to suck it up. I want to whine and cry and crawl into bed. I want someone to take care of me...Anyone? Anyone?

is anyone out there?

It has been so long since I blogged. So much so that I let my domain expire and it isn't easy to reinstate it…things become more complicated with technology sometimes you just give up.

Mornings can be very interesting. This morning did not disappoint. Jakob and Kadence wanted apple juice for breakfast instead of milk. Rick didn't want to give them apple juice because he felt that was just weird. He wouldn't drink apple juice for breakfast, so why should they. I laughed and told him that this isn't Rick's world and it doesn't revolve around him. "what!?" Rick turns to Jakob and asks: "Jakob, does the world revolve around me?" "No." was Jakobs reply. So Rick decided to ask him who the world revolved around. I was minding my own business making my breakfast when I heard Jakob say "mommy." Let me tell you, that is one smart little kid.
I had to share this post from Facebook by my cousin Bailey. His words ring very true, and I stand by them. I feel as a society we need to move forward and not backward. Learning to accept everyone for who they are and not forcing everyone into what we feel they should be. Bailey's post: Just in case the Georgetown Times doesn't post my response... Mr. Brock, Your recent opinion article on the topic of same-sex marriages saddened me. Not only as a gay man, but as a forward thinking American citizen, I whole-heartedly disagree with you on your views. No matter what kind of intentions President Obama had for announcing his support of same sex marriage, he will be relieved one day when he finds his beliefs to be on the right side of history. You say, “The biological premise of the joining of one man and one woman is propagation of the species.” If that’s true, why should elderly people be allowed to get married? Or heterosexual couples who can’t conceive children? Should th...
