Hmmmm.
Soooooo, apparently the nation has lost it's mind. There was a "women's" march on Saturday (the day after the inauguration. But the wouldn't let pro-choice women march. And Social Media has blown up with everyone fighting about everything...Liberals/conservatives. It's really crazy that the nations is literally divided in two. And it's really sad (that from my perspective), everyone who didn't get their way is throwing a ginormous fit. But you know what...we live in a nation that makes it possible. And that is pretty cool.
Blessing: Freedom. Lesson: I need to stand for what is right...with kindness and compassion....but STAND.

Sunday, Happy Sunday
I love Sunday. I love my battery recharge. It wasn't my week to teach..and Kellie is such a great teacher! But I love this age group! They are so much fun. I just needed to be at church today. Needed the quiet and the respite. I'm grateful I have that place to go.
Blessing: The Gospel. Lesson: I Need Thee Every Hour.

Here We Go Again!
Since Baylee had her procedure yesterday, we kept it mostly quiet. Felix and I ran a ton of errands...but the kids were mostly quiet. We tried watching a movie, but Baylee started throwing up again. Sigh. Her poor stomach. She's back on a liquid diet. I'm grateful we have insurance, and that we have gone through this before, so we don't have to freak out.
Blessing: She is calm. Lesson: I can do hard things...so can she.

Procedure Time
Time for Baylees next round of Botox. Her migraines have been really bad. I'm guessing mostly because of everything else going on with her body. But the coolest thing ever...it's not a doctor appointment, but I was able to have a sit down with Dr. Lloyd and tell him what Dr. Giles said about the Lyrica and Topamax and he was in full agreement that we needed to get her off something, just in case and took her right off the Topamax. He was all in for protecting her body. That was pretty amazing, that even though it was a procedure day he took the time to talk and listen and PROTECT her. And the anesthesiologist was just as great listening to her history and said he would take great care of her.
And while she was in her procedure, I listened to most of the inaugeration. And was sad to see the protests turned into damaging protests. Sigh.
Blessing: Great Doctors. An awesome nation (even though it is fractured right now), that can have a peaceful transfer of power. Lesson: Even though I'm not perfect, I can be peaceful when I don't agree (I did it for the last administration...I hope people can figure it out for this one.)

What a Night!
Bunko Night! Only nobody came, and it was at Liz's house. I love Liz! So it was Me, Liz and Glynis. And honestly...best night ever. Laughter, tears and just happiness. I'm so grateful for friends who get me, who let me be me. Where I don't have to hold back or gloss over anything. I'm just so grateful for the many blessing and angels I have in my life. There are so many.
Blessings: The friendships that will stand the test of time and life. Lesson: Knowing that Heavenly Father sent people to me.

A FREE DAY!
Do you know how rarely I have a day that I don't have to run around like a chicken with my head cut off! Woohoo! I love it! I don't even know what I did today....that's how big of advantage I took of it!
Blessing: These are my silver lining days! I love them! Lesson: There are blessings in the trials!

A Full Day
Days when we jump from doctor to doctor are kind of rough....but in the end, we end up getting answers...and that is a huge blessing. And I'm so, so, so grateful for the associations we have with our doctors and the great care my kiddos have!
Blessing: That my kids have people that care about their quality of life (even if I do have to pay them!). Lesson: I need to not complain so much about the time in the car!
