Ticked

I've officially turned into my mother, only sadly, very sadly, I wear two sizes larger than she does and she's 5 inches taller than me.

Today, just minutes ago, I actually told my children who were dangerously playing with a stick,

You'll Poke Your Eye Out!

I don't really know what to make of this new development.

Also, yesterday I found a tick on my dear two-year-old. She was very good about letting me remove it, after her dad attempted for about five minutes and couldn't go through with it for fear of hurting her. I'm hoping Lyme disease is not in our near future. So far so good, with no rash or fever.

Lastly, my husband is in Germany, for the second to last business trip he'll take while living here. He'll be gone for three days, and I'm looking forward to a life where he'll be home more than 1/2 the time.

Blake had a tick last weekend! We can be Lyme disease buddies. haha His was pretty small and came out withough incident. He seems fine...unless a voluntary liquid diet is a symptom of Lyme disease. He insists on drinking all day and eating only snack foods. When is your big move to CA?

Just what I always wanted-- A Lyme Disease Buddy! I soooo wish we were moving back to Va instead of Ca...

When is the move, exactly?????

I am so bummed I didn't get to see you there. :(

Oh, well.

If you are turning in to your mom, does this mean that you have a huge collection of christmas ribbon, too???

Yes, my bow and ribbon collection is rather impressive, but I'm always on the look out for more, much to JL's chagrin.
