An Illness and An Accomplishment

An Illness....
At breakfast yesterday Maddy was sniffling. Since I REALLY want some family pictures, I said, "Oh, no Maddy! You're not getting a cold, are you?" If you know Maddy, you know how much she can "suck up". She got a little pout on her face, came over to my lap, snuggled in, and answered, "No, I'm not getting a cold. I'm getting a hot."

An Accomplishment ....
Today Seth took a giant leap into manhood. Especially in his eyes. He had his first shower. His first "on his own" shower. And, most importantly, his first "made the mirror foggy" shower. He really wanted the mirror to be foggy, just like it looks after dad has a shower. In order to achieve this accomplishment, he had to take a veerrryyy long shower. He kept calling out, "Is it foggy yet?" and peeking around the curtain. Oh, to be four again!
