Poor Red was vomiting all last night and today, so Noelle had to entertain herself
-which was fine, until I found Noelle asleep at noon on the floor of her room
-which was fine, until I noticed that both she and the floor were covered in pee, so I needed to change her, which woke her up
-which was fine, until it meant that she wouldn't go back to sleep and missed her usual 2hr nap. So I decided to take the time to assemble this organizer/drawer thing for Delilah's closet
-which was fine until I discoverd on step 13 that I had messed up back at step 3 and had to start all over. We decided some fresh air would do everyone good, so we headed to the park
-which was fine, until we got to the park and discovered major construction going on next door, giving all 3 of us serious headaches within 5 minutes. So we headed to the grocery store
-which was fine, until we got home and Delilah threw up again and I got so distracted that I left the groceries on the counter long enough to have to wonder if they're still good. Then Delilah asked if we could watch Project Runway. We did, and she said that the first thing she ever sews will be for me and she will add real flowers because real flowers are the only thing as pretty as Mommy.
-which was fine. So completely, beautifully fine.

I love this! It reminds me of "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie." And, on another note, I am well-aware that you do not write this blog for me, but I am so thankful that you write it so that I can feel like we still get to talk and share mundane details everyday together. I was just thinking about this in the car yesterday. Random, I know.
