Sick

When I was pregnant with Martin, I caught 3 or 4 colds and they lasted longer than normal colds because I was pregnant. This time around I thought that I might miss out on some of the colds because it would be summer. Well, I have missed out on all colds so far, but in exchange I have had two stomach bugs. I would pick the colds if given the choice. 

I went bed at 730 last night, as soon as I came home from church. I thought I was just really tired. Stomach problems hit a few hours later. I woke up so achy this morning. Thankfully, my parents came and picked up Martin so I could rest. My house is so quiet. I miss him, but I had no energy to watch him. 

They keep sending me updates and photos. I think he is having a great time. So far they have been to the zoo, watered plants in the garden, and read books. What fun! 

Granddad and Martin read the mail. 

Martin reads Granddad a book. 

Martin waits for his grandparents this morning to pick him up. He pulled this old milk jug out of the recycling a few weeks ago and loves to play with it. Who needs toys? 

Thanks to my wonderful parents for watching him. You are the best. Maybe some day I can watch Martin's children for him.
