bugs and a bad mommy

This past week has been all but calm. I think that everyone in our family has been sick with either the stomach flu/gastro issues and/or a terrible cold... the kind of colds that the aroma of Mentholatum and Vick's vapor rub are longed for! I was so dizzy, I think that I almost passed out leading the primary music for our primary program on Sunday (that would have been a sight)!

Halloween was actually fun this year... the kids were old enough that they were excited about the tricks and treats. For nostalgia's sake, Belle was the same Siamese cat I was when I was five (my grandmother made the costume for me way back when)! Sam was a cute "buzz-year to-rescue" (in his words). Sometimes I really feel like a bad mom. Example 1: dramatically telling Sam that there are spiders on the floor of the chapel each time he tries to get down from the pews to escape (needless to say, he really hates spiders and this has worked)! Example 2: not taking ANY, NONE, ZIPPO pictures of my children on Halloween. Thus, due to the latter example- no pics!

  1. haha, I just had to laugh reading that! You're not a bad mom, you're just very REAL! At least you didn't almost kill your child by falling down some stairs! =)
