drug induced

My hives went away after some nasty steroids.  

I am again reminded to thank the Lord for the blessings of health when we have them.

And always I suppose. 

After the hives went away a nasty cold came on, which is probably what caused them in the first place.

So, it was a week of sleeping  and being lazy.

And p.s, my Nate is the best when I am sick. 

He takes care of the kids and makes sure I get all the sleep I need.

Makes all the difference.

That plus a little hydrocodone. 

My family has mentioned that they miss my daily posts of thoughts and kids.

I haven't missed them so much.

Maybe it just takes some typing to get the creative juices ignited.

I have terribly interesting things happen to me daily.

Like, sitting on the floor kissing on the kiddos.

I love it.

They have the softest hair and yummy warm cheeks that need me to pretend eat them.

That makes them squeal.

And, number three has topped number two on the scales.

He is round and happy.

 I sometimes get the sensation that I am missing the baby, and I look for him in a panic only to realize that he is hanging out with the rest of the gang like it's old news.

Is this the feeling you get before another???

I should know. 

But instead of always feeling like I must be struggling, or sleep deprived, or stressed to validate my day by day, 

I am loving this time.

It feels wonderful.  

Maybe that is the remnants of the drugs talking...
