minnie to the rescue

mom and me
May 2008

Rough. Doesn't even begin to describe what my weekend would have been like if it weren't for my mom. With Kyle gone since Friday morning and not back until tonight, things would have been a bit tricky if she hadn't shown up.

Because she was here... I was able to focus on my big boy who was sick, sick and rub his achy legs whenever he needed it. Embry and Ellie were happily kept at a distance in hopes of not catching the yuck. My house is not the disaster it would have been otherwise. Books were read. Bottoms were wiped. Beds were made. And one little princess got her nails painted Sleeping Beauty pink.

Thanks Mom.
Thanks for rescuing me again and again.

Love you.

Three cheers for Minnie. Thank you so much, I don't think it would be safe for me to come home otherwise. Just kidding, just kidding.

REMEMBER ALWAYS, THAT I AM JUST A PHONE CALL AWAY.. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE BEING AROUND TO HELP OUT... CAN'T WAIT TO HAVE YOU ALL HERE SO I DON'T HAVE TO 'SNEAK OUT'... OR HEAR THEM CRY WHEN I LEAVE. THEY ARE ALL SO PRECIOUS AND MY HEART SWELLS WITH PRIDE ALL THE TIME!

I LOVE YOU MORE :o)

SO glad your mom is close enough to come to the rescue. I can't wait for mine to get here and help burp M3...and bake with Josiah and color with Laney.

Aw, that's so sweet! I miss my mom being closer like she was when Alex was little. She still tries to help when she can. Moms are the best!
