Summa Daze

Today is a pretty day. It is about 75 and sunny with cotton-ball clouds. It is a beautiful day to play outside... So play outside we are doing.














Valerie's last day is Thursday, lemme say, I am not going to miss getting her up, getting breakfast and waking up Asher to take her to school. That really is not the best part of my day ;-)










Asher has been so adorable the past couple days. He was really sick and miserable this weekend. Friday, he cried and cried all day- the kind of strained cry that I just knew something hurt. Life will be better when he can tell me WHAT hurts.

Anyway, we went to DC for the Race for the Cure and Asher threw up a couple times, and then he was even fussier. We decided to come back home- which was really heart-breaking for me. Then I got a migrane



So. We decided to drive home and by the time we got him cleaned up, stopped and got more diapers and splurged for wipes, it was really late.

So, I had a terrible headache and there was a big lightning/thunderstorm and I was a little scared. I wanted Matt to drive, but Valerie flipped out about that idea, so I continued driving.





Just about when we finally got home, everyone was asleep and all I could think about was getting home so I could throw up. Suddenly, there was a dog right in front of me that I could not avoid. I wish he had been any other color than black, I totally did not see him until he was literally right in front of me, I did not even have time to honk. I hate that. Of everything that happened Friday night, that was definitely the worst.






Matt was sick and woozy Saturday and Valerie went to a Sunday School pool party, that was nice for her. I totally missed out on the Race which really upset me. It was one of the only things we had planned for the summer, but things happen. If anyone knows that, I know it.











Anyway, I have been loving Asher so much these past couple days. For whatever reason, my mind has been on how hard it was for us to finally get Asher. He is a blessing to us.







Valerie is a blessing too. She is hilarious and funny and way less awkward than I was at her age. She is a joy. I hope we figure out some fun things to do together this summer.
