Right Now

A family photo at the Harlem Globetrotters show.  I'm making an effort to have myself in more photos.

• I'm thankful for allergy medicine that helped kick my migraine to the curb!
• I'm excited about a text message sent from Emma's aide that said she used her talker a few times at circle time today to talk with her friends.  That's BIG stuff!
• I love Julia's giggle.  It's so cute!  And I love the way she is so excited about things and giggles even harder when I start to laugh.  She is so adorable!  I feel like a bit of magic enters my day when I get a chance to play with her and see her imagination in action.  
• I feel blessed to have such a great husband and partner.  He is seriously the best!  I don't tell him enough.  Hey, babe - You are the Cheese to my Macaroni.  Love ya!
• I miss my Finnegan.  Lots.  And it seems like every place I go I seem to wind up in the pet area, which is not a place I want to be.  My heart still hurts.  And I'm mad when I think about how we lost her so young.  The chances of losing her to the lyme necrosis is so rare.  So is the chance of having a baby with complication of cCMV.  If we keep winning the "rare" card, I sure wish God would make it us winning the lottery and stop messing with my family!  
• I'm glad I've been working out at the gym consistently each week.  I'm feeling stronger and am looking forward to the nicer weather so I can take Emma out for bike rides - something we both enjoy.
• I'm thinking about Emma's kindergarten placement.  We are in the early discussions of places.  
• I feel behind in that I haven't made an appointment to have our taxes done yet.  I've been dragging my feet because I think we'll owe money this year.  I plan to call tomorrow for an appointment to get that monkey off my back.
• I'm looking forward to a Composition in the Field class with a professional photographer this weekend.  It was a Christmas present from Chris and I think it's going to be lots of fun!  Fingers crossed for good weather.
