So I had some big intentions this week, but as life with children is unpredictable, those intentions may not come to fruition. Today I had hoped for an actual shopping trip of leisure to the...wait for it...MALL. Not just any mall, but the infamous La Cantera, a heavenly little sanctuary of shopping. I was even considering a delightful lunch at PF Changs. These plans were promptly change when Bailey's simple cold, turned ugly. Full blown sinus infection with both an inner AND outer ear infection. Did I mention it was oozing when he awoke this morning? Oh, and the 103 fever was another nice clue our day would not be going as intended. Well, being a practical woman, I decided if I had to take Bailey to the doctor, I might as well take the girls for their well visits! Our wonderful doctor promptly confirmed the diagnosis of inner and outer ear infection, with most likely, a ruptured ear drum (hence the oozing!). That means no swim...
Somedays I feel like I've done it all. To look at me, you might say "now that's an ordinary mom". Dig a little deeper and you'll find I've led a pretty interesting life, done some pretty extraordinary things, especially once I became a mother of four wonderful, extremely different children! Unique personalities and needs, all wonderful, trying and glorious at the same time!
