I generally love a day where we spend the whole day in our pj’s, but 3 days is a bit much for me. Since Friday Aryanna has been sick. Jordyn got sick Saturday night and woke up Sunday miserable. For him to say, “I don’t feel well at all.” means he was feeling mighty crappy because he usually will hold out as long as he can to admit he’s sick. So we’ve been cooped up in the house for the past 3 days. Aryanna has been running a low grade fever but is up and around. Jordyn is congested but is up and about as well today. I can tell we are all going a little stir crazy though. We are starting to get on each others nerves. God help us if we ever take a road trip that last a few days. I’m just happy to not be sick with them. Let me go find some wood to knock on now.

Tagged Under : family, Happy New Year, kids
Happy New Year everyone!! 2009 is here…hopefully it will be a more prospersous and healthy one for all.
We celebrated quietly at home last night. The kids had fun staying up with us. Aryanna almost didn’t make it, but once we changed the channel to show Time Square, she livened right up. We counted down with everyone in the T.V. Then we yelled Happy New Year!!! The kids screamed. Patrick and I yelled. Everyone kissed and hugged.
What is it about that moment that makes you forget all the wrong in the world and all the wrong with each other? It always seems like such an emotional and exciting moment. Maybe because we have no clue what’s to come but we all want to see what is going to happen. Maybe we all are just full of hopes for the future that we are ready to bring it on and conquer.
I personally love that moment and look foward to it every year because for a brief period in time nothing else matters in life but that moment of change. Change of time. Change of year. Change of old ways to new and better ways.
I’m excited to see what 2009 brings. Bad or good, I will learn a lesson either way.
