Different kind of Sundays...

Today is the third Sunday in a row that i haven't been to church because of someone not feeling well. This morning i thought i might be going because Jonathan was milking last night and only got to bed after 3am, but about 9:15 he was up and getting ready to go, so i'm home again... this time with Reagan & Brenden. It's ok with me... because i'm not sure how much Jonathan would've "been there" for the boys if he was home sleeping. And i'm a little extra cautious with Reagan because he seems to have hypoglycemic tendencies so i get concerned about his sugar levels when he isn't eating well. He had a fever last night and i almost ended up taking him in to see a doctor, but minor emergency was closed by then, and Reagan really didn't want to go to the hospital (??) so i called healthline instead (and i was very pleased with their help). He was soaking wet this morning and his fever was way down, so i thought he'd beat it, but now he's a bit warm again. I'm guessing he won't be doing violin lessons tomorrow...

Reagan wanted something to make him laugh this morning, so he & Brenden are watching a Ken Davis and friends video.

I made a batch of cookies to use up sour cream that needed to be used up. And i'm washing Reagan's bedding after all his sweating.

I updated a bit on our adoption blog yesterday ~ it's been 8mos. now since our file landed in Ethiopia. How much longer til we have a referral?? Hard to guess... but i'll remain optimistic and keep hoping it'll be before May. We did get an update from our agency that there are more steps (new in the last few weeks/months) for everything to go through court, so that means (as i understand it) that our wait to travel (after referral) could potentially take longer than we first anticipated. But we can leave that all in God's hands too...

Well, i guess i could come up with something for lunch before Jonathan & Janique get home (Darwin's Sunday school class is having lunch at church and then playing hockey after that, so he'll be home later). Any good lunch ideas?? lol...

Hi there,
I was wondering where you were yesterday. I've missed our chats after the church service! I heard you had been sick a couple of weekends ago. It seems this is the month of sickness for our family too. Adam was sick yesterday (Ben stayed home with him) and today Luke is not feeling well. Josh had some kind of virus last week. Hope your day is going well.

PS Can you email me the address for your adoption blog? I can't find it! Thanks!
