Yesterday was not such a great day for me. I was in pain most of the day. What I usually take for monthly cramping was not allowed this time because of my surgery coming up on Thursday, and I usually live on Aleve for a week. I was on the couch for part of the day. My son showed me some sweet empathy which pleasantly surprised me. The constant reminders I give him about thinking of others must have sunk way down in there somewhere...thankfully. He was truly concerned for me and kept giving me hugs and asking if I wanted a blanket. Later that day, I had to drive to a clinic to get blood drawn. He asked where we were going and I explained it to him and told him about my surgery. He said "I have a surprise for you when you get better" and then asked "Are they going to take your stomach out, mommy?".
I'll include a picture
of him eating his breakfast this morning. Lucky Charms was a favorite cereal of mine when I was a little girl. I probably buy it twice a year for a treat and the box is usually gone within a couple of days. Last week I picked up a couple of boxes in the bargain bin at the grocery store. Caedmon asked me this morning if he could have "chops" for breakfast. Now I need to go get a bowl before he eats it all.

Sherri, I'm so sorry you were not feeling well yesterday. We should've traded babysitting....I should've taken your 2 yesterday and you couldn've taken my younger 2 today?? I had a migraine today so had a rough Tuesday. I'll be thinking and praying for you on Thursday.
I love to hear what Caedmon comes up with, he always reminds me so much of how William talks. :) You sure have sweet kids!
Sherri, sorry you're not feeling so hot this week! I'm glad Caedmon is learning to be a good comforter!
Thank goodness for Aleve! And just this once!
Thanks, Heather and Joyce...hope you're feeling better, Heather. I don't get migraines that often but have heard they're not fun. Thanks for your prayers.
Sherri,
Hope your surgery goes well today. We will be praying for your from Daviess Co! Lucky Charms are so good....
I'm glad Caedmon is learning to be thoughtful. The idea of a blanket sounds healing to me! Hugs and kisses from the little ones mean so much, don't they?
