Some positive thoughts

OK. it has been a tough week so far. I've been doing my share of complaining about everyone being sick, having tons of sicko laundry, etc. So, tonight I am trying for a negative-free zone on my blog.

Have I mentioned how adorable and fantastic my two children are? Max is so caring - he really took care of me today when I started feeling ill. He brought his doctor kit and checked me out, and gave me all sorts of therapies. He is creative and funny too - he loves to make up stories, and adapt stories that he's heard. We're currently reading Alice In Wonderland for the third time, so there is a lot of story potential there. And, he's taken my lead in making up songs. We make up silly songs about things that are happening each day. So, the other day I made turkey bacon for breakfast, and I made up an annoying "Bacon.... I'm makin' bacon" song. Today we made up a song about diarrhea. Can't get any funnier than that.

Emma is so interested in following me around and making me laugh! She LOVES shoes! She will bring them to me and make me put them on her, then she'll wear them around the house all day. She especially loves her new crocs (they are pink and so cute on her). She'll also give me her hand to hold while we're walking now. At home, she's really enjoying opening drawers and cabinets and taking things out. Apparently, she also enjoys putting things IN. We looked for the TV remote for over an hour before we found it in one of her favorite drawers. Emma also gives wonderful, tender hugs and kisses now. Just love that!

See, I'm just all-over warm and fuzzy thinking about those two! I've gotta try this positive thing more often. :)
