Our Valentine's Day

Valentine's day is a day that most wish they could sleep right through. As for me, well that's a diferent story. You see all while growing up on every holiday we (the kids) got a little gift. Every moring of that holiday we would wake up to a gift at the end of our bed. It was so fun and even as I grew up I still love the tradition. So naturaly I wanted to start it with my own family. So for yesterday Mark got a really nice red sweater that we could have for work or just to hang out in. And Roxy got a way cute shirt that said "dad's sweet heart". Mark got me beautiful flowers and for Michael I got a box of chocolates. I got up and made crapes and we had raspberry filling with chocolate frosting over the top and a spoon full of whipping cream. They were GOOD! Then while I was cleaning the Kitchen I could hear Roxy in the other room making nosies and so I went in to see what she was doing and low and behold she was CRAWLING!!!!! So I sat don't and made her crawl to me like five times then I would clap and say "Yeah Roxy", well my smart little girl sat up and claped and said "yeah" right along with me. It was so so so CUTE! On days like that I wish I had a permanent vidoe camera on my head that was always on. So if that wasn't enough when Mark got home he took me out to dinner while Michael watched Roxy for us. After dinner Mark took me to the mall and bought me a needed new outfit. It was so nice of him to do that. So needless to say my Valentine's day was amazing!

Doing Much Better

Well Roxanne is doing much better. She still has stuff in her nose but she is coming a long. Thank you for all your prayers I know that our prayers have been answered because just last night she started to eat more she wanted to play more and all around started acting more happy. She doesn't cough as much and all around looks and acts more healthy. Thanks again. We love you all!

RSV

Well this past Friday I took Roxanne into the Doctor because she had a tempiture of 104 (which was really scary). So I took her in and Dr. Lamb said that she looked good but maybe just had a little cold and wanted to test for the flu and RSV which she said was going around really bad here in Grand Junction, but didn't think she had it. 15 min. later she came back saying that the test was positive for RSV and read the list of what to watch for before we needed to take her to the hospital. Mind you she told me that I would eventually have to take her but prayed that I wouldn't have to. It was hard to sit there and just listen as she told me the worst case scenario. I try to keep a positive attitude about it all but I can't help but to think of all the mothers that have lost their baby to this horrible virus. I know that we have a great advantage with her having a blessing and your prayers and faith but it is only natural as a mother to worry. If you could just keep her in your prayers that would be grately appreciated.
