Summer’s Just Around the Corner

Ok, wishful thinking.  Yesterday it was very windy and cold.

Today was cloudy, cool, and  a little windy again.

And while this weather creates nice pictures I can’t wait for the sun.  I’m aching for it. 

Emily has been sick the last couple of weeks.  Everything from a head cold to constant movement from her neurological problems, and the forever hip pain.  I get very sad when I can’t do anything for her when she is in pain.  I hate seeing her like that.  She has a ton of pain medicine but sometimes it just doesn’t work.

Emily and her friends from school watching a movie.

Even though Emily’s been ill it seems she is communicating with us a little bit more.  Recently she has decided she wants :

1. a surprise party

2. a cell phone so she can text people

The surprise party is already in the planning stages.  We’ve invited her friends from school who come to visit her each week.  I think I’m going to buy that dancing game for the Wii.  Emily would probably get a kick out of playing that. 

The cell phone request might have to wait till Christmas.  We have to convince Dad that she needs to text people.  You see, Mom and Dad don’t text anyone.  We aren’t inclined….  Jered said he would text Emily if she got a phone.  Her nurse also said she would text her.  So even though Emily won’t be able to use her phone by herself (who says that’s a bad thing?) I’m sure her phone will be used.  She can always call Grandma and Dad and talk to them (they talk to her while she listens and breathes loud).

So summer is almost here and its cold outside.  Well, at least I have my sewing area to keep me busy, and my nice new window to look out while I’m warm and busy inside.

Thanks for listening ~
