Flower Friday

Liz worked really hard this morning on her schoolwork. After so many days home, she definitely wishes she was at school rather than here with me! As she has watched me do chores, errands and manage phone calls each day, she actually said "Is this what you do all day when we are gone?" I answered yes and asked what she thought I did....she answered "We think you go to Target and PTA stuff every day." Hmmm, something like that. Today she was frustrated and teary by 10:00am, and though she was serious about getting work done, she was not happy at all. She was also not looking forward to a trip this afternoon to the hospital for her CT Scan.



SO many meds! Most are taken three times a day. Thank goodness Liz has no problem swallowing pills and for the most part cooperates with taking them all.




Look at this Miss America-type bunch of flowers! Jill Reyes, you are crazy....and Liz says you spoiled me! This unexpected gift absolutely made our day! How can you not smile with a bouquet of flowers this big?!



Is flower arranging considered a 5th grade subject? Liz spent 45 minutes arranging all of the flowers. It was such a nice break from homework and a distraction from her tears (she was super teary today!).


The unexpected flower delivery by sweet Jill was just what we needed today! Thank you, thank you, Jill, for brightening our day and filling our home with beautiful flowers.

...AND, lastly, Kaitlin MADE the New Wave Club Volleyball team! We were so very proud of her for even trying out for the team, and now we are happy for her. It will be great for her to have something all her own. I love, love, love my Kate.
