Thanks for all the well wishes and prayers. Elliott slept like a rock. Woke up this morning in a lot of pain so he got a dose of Ibuprofen and some peas. He is now watching Pinocchio and eating ice cream (yeah, for breakfast---I hate when my kids hurt and if a little ice cream helps, than so be it ). We are having to pretty much carry him to the restroom at this point but I bet by this evening he is starting to get up and around more on his own.
was thinking about you all day yesterday Pearce! That is not an easy surgery by any means. It is very hard to hear he is in so much pain. Poor baby... I am sure you guys are still a bit exhausted, that's a lot of emotional stress. Praying he heals quickly.
Even Charlie can't make that better.
Charlie does help (mommy more so than Elliott I suppose). Elliott is starting to perk up. He is still kind of doing a limping walk but that is fine by me---he needs to take it easy and I was worried he might try to do too much. I took him in for his little Valentines party today at our daycare (the owners are great friends of ours and take the best care of our kids I could ask for). He was glad to get out and see friends.
I finally took care of me today---got my wisdom tooth out that was due to be removed in July last year and I have just kept myself to busy to make it happen. Glad it is over with.
Came home and made some pumpkin pies for the lovies in my life and cleaned the house. I am ready for a nap
Sorry I have been so absent the past few weeks. Hope my BYH buddies aren't put off.
I am going make pumpkin pie too..... dh's favorite...lol hope you feel ok after having your tooth out....I think I would of gone home and slept away the rest of the day
Pearce glad you got yourself taken care of, and so glad Elliott is moving around a bit.
Friends don't get put off.... but we sure do care.
Seems like it has been so much and so busy for you...it also appears that it is winding down and good things are coming...DH almost done with school, kids health is now going to improve, you can get to do what only "mom's" know what to do and family seems to be doing ok from accidents and life "stuff", a whole semester of teaching your first college class..... it's been a lot, but you seem to handle it all with such grace.
You are so right and thanks for pointing it out. a lot of things that have been going on are coming to a close in the next three months, I think we will be seeing some more sunshine and a lot fewer clouds very soon.
