Another Day is Done
It has been a day. I've not been feeling well. I've had a headache that hasn't gone away for at least 4 days now and today has been the worst. I tried my prescription for migraine headaches today, but that didn't work either. I have tried to rest today, but haven't had much luck. The girls and circumstances just haven't helped.
Rebekah has been doing ok today. She ate a few more bites today - some wheat thins this afternoon (half swallowed and half spit out), a gold fish or two at lunch, and some bites of corn, apple and burrito at dinner. Again, not many bites, but more than we've seen in a while.
She has fought against taking a nap and against going to bed tonight, but at the same time was acting very tired, getting upset over the smallest things and throwing temper tantrums, etc... It is tough to watch her act up, but that is part of growing up, isn't it. She continues to want the lotion on her belly, cheeks, and legs at night. She has to put it on. She put some on Mommy's face, too.
Sarah has had many poopy diapers today and has a rash to show for it. She has been screaming with each diaper change. It has been a rough day for her. In addition, I believe that her teeth are continuing to bother her. Poor Sarah!
Lately, Sarah has been taking a dolly or stuffed animal and laying them down on a pillow. Then she will get a blanket and put it over the dolly or animal. It is really cute to watch. She pulled a pillow down from the top of the couch onto the seat and layed down on it herself. Rebekah insisted that we get a blanket for Sarah. Mind you, she didn't want Sarah to have her blanket so we had to get one of Sarah's blankets.
Both girls are taking the teapots and pouring into a cup and taking drinks. Sometimes, they will even give a cup to each other or Mommy or Grandma and fill it up for them to drink. After they've taken a drink, they will fill it up again and again and again...
Our hearts continue to be heavy and prayers continue for Oliver, Gage, Kennedy, Nikolette and Josh as well as Madeleine, Kaitlin and Warren.

I hope the headache gets better soon. The girls sound cute and tiring at the same time. They are already like little mommies covering babies, that's so adorable.
I suffered all last week with a sick headache. Miserable, hope yours clears up very soon. Young children are so much fun, so much stress at times too. They keep growing and changing and so does the kind of fun we have and the stress we endure. God's grace and peace to you.
I'm sorry about your headache. I used to get bad headaches and I know how debilitating they can be. Isn't it wonderful, though, that both Rebekah and Sarah are doing all of the normal "little girl" activities? You've helped all of us out here take pleasure in the normal and it's nice to hear that you have some normal things in your life now and then.
Take care of yourself!
Still praying... always praying.
I am praying for you Frances! I hope your headache has flown the coop!
....praying continually here in Pennsylvania!
