We've been so blessed to be germ free most of the winter, of course Lacy gets sick the day of the school play, she was supposed to be the wheat! Lily who's the duck in the play, yells at breakfast, "But who will be the WHEAT?"
Another note is that Lily who is definitely my child who I have to correct the most, is also my most loving and nurturing child, the one who likes to take care of others and help when I need it. She's the one who brought Lacy downstairs in the middle of the night when she had a fever, got Lacy some ice water, asked her if she wanted a cup of cereal while she laid on the couch, pulled the side table next to the couch for her tissues and throw up bowl. I LOOOOOVE seeing this side of Lily, I think God knows when I need to see all of her awesome personality to remind me that she's a perfect little person no matter that sometimes she wears me out!
Today is also a reminder that I miss having family around. I've gotten used to being self sufficient or in a pinch, asking friends/sitters for help when we need it but can't do that tonight. If we had family, it's not a big deal to ask for help so I'll be hanging out @ home with Lacy while the other girls head to the play with Jason. In the grand scheme of things, not a huge deal but it does bother me to miss ANYTHING the girls do.
