Poor Mommy

What a day Gracie and I had. Gracie had to have some tests done today at the hospital just a kidney follow up but it SUCKED! We got there at 8:30 and did not leave till 1:20! Yup thats right 5 hours an I.V. and cathador later we were done. Oh and as of May 12,2008 WBMC is a smoke free compound, even the F_CKING parking lot doesnt it sound like a fun day. I have to say Gracie was much stronger than the mom was.I wanted to cry when I heard her cry.The feeling you get when your child is crying and their is nothing you can do about it is one of the worst feelings in the world. I wanted to pick her up and make it all better but I wasnt allowed to and I wanted to rub her head and tell her she would be ok but she didnt understand what I was saying their was NOTHING I could do to help her and for the first time since becoming a mother I felt helpless. I hope I do not have to go through that too many more times in Gracies life because the painin my heart was far greater than Gracies I.V. and cathador.

The rest of the day went well. We watched some TV went swimming ate and before I knew I had forgotten how sad I was when Gracie cried because she had gone right back to the Gracie Prat that at times makes me look at her and say,"FOR REAL" hahahahaha Her normal cry, laughter, fussing was back.GREAT!

We have to wait for the test results and Im sure Gracie is fine but I will be sure to post the results.

Mothers Day

So Sunday was my first Mother's Day and although I think it is a
hallmark holiday it was a good one anyhow. You see I believe mothers
should be celebrated everyday not just one day a year. For one person
never to have a day off,never can call in sick, cant ever be late anddoesn't ever get a vacation don't you think mothers deserve more than just a day. It doesn't even last a day maybe an hour than its back on duty WTF is that? But like I said I will take it and celebrate it with all the other mothers in the world.

I have to say Emily really made sure that Bernie and I had a great
Mothers Day. She took care of getting Bernie's gifts and in the middle
of her crazy daily life had enough time to call a florist in my area to
have flowers delivered to me. She is soooo sweet! And I have to admit all she got from me was a phone call late Sunday afternoon! I'm a crappy sister...SORRY Em. I hope next year I will do better.

Here is a look at the flowers Emily had sent to me. I am truly blessed to
have such a great sister who takes care of me not just on mothers day
but all year long.

Thanks Em your the best!
