Ouch and Aww

Amelia is so funny and with all the driving we do is it any wonder that our best conversations take place in the car? This weekend she was full of all kinds of "opinions" and understandings about life. I told myself to remember one specific conversation but it is after 10 pm and I am exhausted, maybe I will rememer in the morning! Something to do with Barak Obama and how if we just did things a certain way it would fix all the problems in the world...

Highs: getting a $323 dress for $50 and it fits like a glove, having the best sushi ever, and hearing Abigail process and find the silver lining in her pain. If you ever find yourself in Conroe, you must try the Dragon Fingers at Wild Ginger off of 105. DELISH! Also, if you go on a Sunday, Happy hour is ALL.DAY.LONG!

Lows: Axel having a delayed, allergic reaction to amoxocillin and finding Abigail in her room crying because she was thinking about when B and I were married and "not unhappy with each other". Poor baby girl, recognized it as her birth month and was able to articulate that it was just so confusing because she remembers us eating and laughing and being happy. We talked for a bit and I told her that it still hurts me too, but that I try to just focus on how it was part of God's plan and that good things will come from it. Axel jsut so happened to walk into her room about this time and she looked at him with such love and said, "if Brent hadn't left, we wouldn't have Axel".

Oh, and the trampoline we got the kids for Christmas has only been up 2 weeks and has caused a bloody mouth and sprained ankle...

January brought heartache and loss. February has already included multiple Dr visits and an trip to urgent care.

2013 is proving to be our most challenging year yet.
