Some Are More Help Than Others...


The ladies decided to make cookies for this Mommy's birthday yesterday....and in most ways I was amazed. The older two are learning liquid measures in school and this was excellent practice time. Katie is a natural organizer and very 'neat' by nature. She is going to live with her mommy forever because I can hand her a basket of laundry and come back a few minutes later to find everything perfectly folded and matched. So....with our cookie adventure....the hierarchy emerges quickly. Leni thinks dough ..any dough is playdough, Kristin is the natural bossy boss and quite enjoys giving instructions (see it in her eyes??!!) and Katie takes her time with a project, is a perfectionist and a detail person. The cookies came out awesome...and the kitchen is somewhat still intact. Heh.

Leni is some better. The fever is gone (whooooooo!!!!) but the breathing issues remain and are very, very stubborn. This was a doozy of an episode for her. Duh, right?! She's still on multiple steroids and breathing meds....and remains pale and weak but everyday we're seeing some progress. She's such an example of a sweet spirit when suffering! I want to be like her when I grow up
