I just poured myself a Dr. Pepper (a rare treat) in a coffee mug- trying to avoid the questions and stares associated with something mom has and kids don't!
Lucy has been taking three hour naps lately- summer heat? She's so happy when she wakes up in the afternoons. Kayla and Sam are playing in the basement and Jack is listening to a book on cd. It is so quiet...
I am on day 3 of pink eye- in both eyes now. Gross. A minor irritation but aggravating just the same. Really hoping and praying that it stops with me. Kayla and Lucy are flower girls in a wedding this weekend and Brian is officiating. His first! We don't want red goopy eyes for a wedding. Can't wait for this one- such a great couple getting married!
The kids signed up for the summer reading program yesterday. Here, you keep track by the half-hour and get prizes at 5, 10, 15, and 20 hours. Jack and Kayla set the timer this morning for two hours. They read, non-stop, for the whole time. Then they went up to do legos and listen to a book on cd for another hour and a half. I think they want to finish the whole program this week. Guessing they'll slow down soon but it sure made for a peaceful morning.
Last thing- a few weeks ago my dad mentioned using epsom salt (along with some other things) on his tomato plants. My uncle told him to try it. Then I found this article on using epsom salt on almost all your plants. Supposed to do wonder for them. I'll let you know!

Oh gee, so sorry about the eyes. I've sent the epsom salt straight on to the gardener. Wonderful wedding ahead of you!
Thanks for prayers.
BTW I am so excited, borrowed my first online book ever, and its the Castle --just had a yearning to reread. I knew you did that so tried.
Sorry to hear about the pink eye. Wish I knew of a miracle cure. When I was 4 I was flower girl in my mom's wedding to my step-dad and I had the chicken pox! Our dresses were peach and I was covered in pink calamine lotion!
Will pray for quick recovery. :)
