Sick Day

24 June 2008

Molly is on day 5 of a cold and Ryan was diagnosed with an ear infection today. He started acting out of sorts on Sunday but by Tuesday morning he complained of a head and earache. He did comment without prompting that, “My heart feels great!” Ryan was very grateful for everything I did for [...]

Ryan and Molly enjoyed a playtime in our front yard with the sprinkler this afternoon. Molly was not bothered by the feeling of the grass on her toes or the freezing cold water. Ryan kept calling the sprinkler the spritzer.

Thanks to Dr. Suess and Wonder Red from Super Why Ryan is in a rhyming phase. Everything has to have a rhyme even when no English word exists- he just makes one up! He is learning to skateboard and he loves wearing his red skate helmet and pads [largely due to the fact that I [...]

Molly’s latest nickname is Molly-buns. She is so cute I just want to eat her up like a Cinnabon. She just started wearing double pig-tails and clips, it is so fun having a girl around! Her first word is offically “Ah-Oh”. It seems appropreiate for her as she is always trying to get into everything. [...]

Peter was presented with a homemade breakfast smoothie and a plate of bacon for his Father’s Day Breakfast. I did wonder if giving him a heart attack on a plate was actually a gift or not but none the less it was readily devoured. After church services we went to Prior Lake to celebrate with [...]

Soba noodles, tempura and sushi….mmmmmmmmm! I was fortunate enough to help Janielle Batchelder soon to be Janielle Nordell (Ben) celebrate her upcoming marriage with a bachelorette dinner at a restaurant called Fujiya. The food was delicious and brought me very much back to my days living in Japan where my apartment was 1/2 block from [...]

Ryan is learning one of life’s greatest lessons. God made our bodies to heal and to help our ouchies heal we get scabs.

I find myself saying “It’s like we are on vacation” during times of unexpected enjoyment or new fun activity. Tonight was such a night. The four of us went to Culver’s for my birthday dinner at my request. After our meal together we stopped at Kelley Park in Apple Valley. The park has pretty fountains, [...]

Phewwt! Gag-Spit! Eou! These utterances came from my mouth as I rejected a bite of not fully ripened organic banana this morning. I finally have fresh fruit in our home after weeks of delaying the grocery run to Super Target. I knew it was green but I was trying to push my luck. The banana [...]
