Sharing

Elijah has always loved the music box from his mobile. Because of this I allowed him to keep it on the side of his toddler bed instead of putting it on the boys' crib. Thee other day, however, we wanted to try out the mobile and see how it the boys liked it. From that day it has stayed in their room and Elijah has shared his beloved music box with his little brother....Jonah especially as it is on his crib...and he loves it.

When did I get such a grown up little boy? My how time flies!

That being said I would love to find a wealthy individual who would take pitty on me and share his/her money with my family. Not for anything major (at least not in comparison to asking for a million dollars.) Just a vacation to Disney World with my family. We need to get away and have fun together. The stress of 3 kids 3 and under, 2 constantly sick babies, keeping up just with laundry, dishes, and food all while both of us are working full time (and nights at that in my case) has really taken its toll on my health. Looking in the mirror has become a sight that I quite often ignore. Glancing up to see dark purple bags under your reddened and dry eyes combined with a complexion that is screaming for some TLC is not really something one desires...especially when your hair is matted down with baby food. That in and of itself, however is not my true worry. I can't ever seem to feel well. I am exhausted. I try to sleep and either I am woken up constantly by 1 or all children at some point of the night or I am so anxious that my sleep is interupted by myself worrying about missing my alarm or not hearing a crying baby. Yesterday after work I started to go to sleep only to be jolted awake by my heart beating close to 200 beats a minute. The only way I could get it to stop was by vagaling myself. That's not the most enjoyable feeling. To make matters worse, as I was on my way out the door to go to work later on I ended up passing out for some unknown reason and had to call in (late) for work bc I didn't know what was going on. All I know is lately I just ache all over had have a perpetual headache. Of course last night my night only got better when my teething vs ear infection Jonah was awake ALL NIGHT LONG! I felt so bad for him wiith his pitiful obviously-I'm-in-pain cry. Oy! When can a girl catch a break or some shut eye? A vacation would be well desired.
