Feeling Pampered

Linny Saunders11 Comments

There’s a wee little miracle-girl laying beside me squealing, giggling, kicking, “talking” and gently rubbing my leg…{and she’s been doing it since somewhere around 1:45 am}.  Jet lag has had me up as well…and so I’ve been awake since 1:15am.   Clearly little Miss Ruby is happy her mommy is home and her mommy is…

Mama doesn’t get sick very often. Almost never. We’re not allowed to, are we sweet friends? Yet I feel so stinkin’ gross. But there was a bit of joy this morning. It was Skyping with Emma for a few minutes. When she learned I was really sick, she told me something {for my health} that…

Over Christmas something happened that brought far too many giggles not to share. Dw’s big brother Steve and his wife, Diane, had sent us a monetary gift for Christmas.  It came with strict instructions:  Blow it on something fun!!   We laughed when we read the note.  They know us all too well – blowing…
