Smile
I can hardly believe it’s Friday finally after the week started for us. Livie perked up the second we got home and has been on an upward spiral since then. It’s made me the happiest I’ve been in a long time. Seeing your kids sick is awful enough but seeing them hooked up to IVs and their scared eyes begging you to take them away from it all is the worst. Seeing her happy and playing is what makes me happiest today.
She smiled once when we were at the hospital and at that moment I thought to myself that I kind of take for granted how often my girls smile and how much I miss it when I don’t see it.
It’s my daily fuel. I need to see them smile. I hate to see them sad. Her smile with sunlight behind it…very appropriate for how much happiness is radiating from her right now.
I showed her the Xray and showed her the coin and I asked her if she remembered eating a coin at Nana’s house. Her reply? “I puked.”
Clearly she remembers it all and connected the dots. I’m hopeful that she won’t ever do it again.

Last Friday I said that I knew the weekend was going to be great. Turns out it sucked majorly. Today I will say it again because this time I KNOW it will be.
A truly happy Friday. Sending some of ours to you.

Awwww, I love that last pic!
Cherish these moments, girl, because I SWEAR TO GOD if I didn’t have baby pictures of Evan smiling & just being adorable I’d suffocate his teenage a$$ in his sleep!

I know exactly what you mean! When Mary smiles the whole world lights up and I will do almost anything to get her to do it again! She really smiles and laughs all the time, but it is just not enough you know?

The thing about smiley kids is that when they stop smiling, you know something is really wrong. That’s the bad news. The good news? Once they start feeling better, the smile returns. So glad to see Livie’s smile has returned, right along with her good health. (I write this pretending I didn’t see something about double ear infections on FB – no, it can’t be!)
