Last night Lydia came into our room with another massive nosebleed. Sometimes her nosebleeds last almost half an hour, and during most of that time she is bleeding massively. I felt so, so sorry for her and wish there were something I could do to help alleviate her discomfort. Afterward she crawled into bed with us and slept really late. I don’t blame her–that nosebleed probably took a lot out of her.<\/p>\n
I let the kids stay home from school again because Lydia was still feverish and lethargic, and Mary said her throat hurt. I think Mary is probably fine, but I like having her around and I feel like she doesn’t get enough free time in her normal schedule.<\/p>\n
She also was a perfectly angelic daughter today. Both Ammon and Clarissa struggled emotionally today, and Mary read to them, played with them, and even gave Ammon a bath after he had an accident right while I was busy making dinner. Every time I asked Mary for ANYTHING (like, “Mary, could you please check the doors upstairs and make sure they’re closed so Clarissa doesn’t wander into the bedrooms?” or “Mary, could you please entertain Clarissa while I cook\/clean\/do laundry?” she would jump right to it with a smile the sweetest attitude. I love that girl so much.<\/p>\n
Ammon was a nightmare and Clarissa refused to nap, so the fact that the girls were so wonderful made this day bearable.<\/p>\n
Also, Abe was soooo amazing and gave me a long massage after the kids went to bed. He has so much going on at work and I am so grateful for how much he gives to me even when he is about to expire.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
