{June 26-July 2nd}
Washing... all our clothes in preparation for our trip to the beach this week. It's so much work to prepare for a week away, but we are all excited and at their current ages, the kids can help so much more than ever before.
Loving... watching my little brother and my growing son share a passion. Dallas is such an awesome teacher, gentle, never pushy, just giving tips here and there and encouraging Logan to try new things. I am so grateful Logan has him. It was so cool to see them skate together, even if it was 200 degrees out that day. Hah!
Overjoyed... that our hydrangea was in bloom when we got back from our beach trip! We've struggled with our hydrangea bushes (we have two) and one is fully in bloom, and the other is looking promising. So this may be the year!!
Soaking... up quiet moments in the pool when the kids get out and I can just float around in there, cloud watching or sun bathing, or sometimes both. The peace I get when I'm in the water cannot be beat.
Taking... care of Logan when he developed a migraine at the skate park Saturday. He said at first his vision went weird (like a kaleidoscope on one side) and by the time I got there (ten minutes later) the migraine pain had started.
He came home and laid in his cold, dark room with level 8 pain in his head until after about thirty minutes he finally threw up. Again, and again. Then he slept for two hours and woke up like it never happened. This is how his migraines roll.
We have an appointment with his amazing neurologist next month just to make sure it's nothing to be worried about (since he had epilepsy earlier in childhood) and to make a plan for when he feels like this. It's hard for me to not be able to do anything for him. I mean, I can provide comfort measures, but I can't make it go away.
