Brooke has gotten really creative about what she brings to bed each night. Last night she shows up with a large ziploc bag (very large ziploc bag) and in it was the following: 1 Consumer Digest magazine ranking the best cars of 2010 (Sorry Toyota!), Mike's latest copy of Coach Magazine, a JCPenney sales book, the Springhill flower and shrub buying guide, a wet rag inside of a smaller ziploc bag used for her headache earlier in the day and the heating pad. Everything (other than the heating pad) was placed on the floor beside the bed, which I'm suprised she allowed. Usually everything sleeps with us. Funny kid! And have I ever mentioned that we think she has night vision? She has the most incredible night-sight! It's eery.
Brooke hasn't been feeling well for the past several days. There's nothing "visibly wrong" but we can tell she's not up to par. She seems a littler warmer than usual and continues to have head and stomach pains. I would love to have x-ray vision so I could take a look into her body to see what's wrong. Where is Superman when you need him?
In order to get Brooke's off of not feeling well, which can easily lead to a complete melt-down reqiring either mom or dad, I had to get creative yesterday and come up with a list of fun things to keep her occupied. She had the fun task of creating a birthday chain so we can count down to the 9th. She also is working on personalized birthday cards for the guests. The party is Sunday and she's super excited! Finally...a birthday party with an actual birthday! Ha. We're having the family over and a few friends.
Off to work I go...have a wonderful day! I pray for peace, love and happiness for each of you. May God give you the comfort and strength needed to handle your day.
