It's unusual for me to post twice in one day...but since this blog is kind of like my family journal, I wanted to post this story while it is fresh in my mind.
I've started kissing Isabelle's "boo-boos" now, then I ask her if it's all better. So when something just slightly brushes up against her now, she says "hurt" so I'll kiss it. Then she says "its better."
Yesterday all day and then part of the day today I felt like I was getting easily frustrated with her because she was being soooo clingy and needy. I understand that it's because she's sick, and so I have been really patient and maybe even spoiled her a little too much, but by the end of the day yesterday, I could feel myself getting a little overwhelmed and frustrated with her, with my house, with various things. (I'm also hormonal, so that doesn't help.) Well, Ben left today for a training conference for work, and Izzy has been acting a little more like herself today.
Tonight, I rocked and cuddled her for a few minutes before bed, and just before I put her in her bed, I leaned down and said "give me a kiss", so she made a smacking sound with her lips and gave me a kiss, then asked, "you better?"
YES, I am much better! I left the room with tears in my eyes. Sometimes the smallest thing can make you realize how blessed you are. Thank you God, for this sweet little child you have given to me.

That was just precious!
Oh Tabby that is so sweet. I can tell Isabelle is going to be just like her mommy. Hope she is feeling better.
