just another day

hello everyone!
this week started out not so good
my toddler caught hand foot and mouth from somewhere
its going around here..
we have a pretty active social life and have many friends
many of those friends have sick kids right now
its a part of life right?!?

it is a hard one to witness 
because the first night she had a bad fever 
second night was fever and thrashing about crying out about her feet 
hurting itching burning
like there was sand in her toes
that's how she described it
during the day it was lots of tears and fussiness
except when we went outside to watch daddy play softball
i regret taking her to that though because that night we were up till 3am
last night she slept well to make up for the last 2 nights she didn't
PRAISE GOD!
everyone has had a fever at least once but then nothing else 
so maybe we are over this soon!
i have been using essential oils to sooth her symptoms
its only been one day but i see improvements
or maybe its just running its course...

blessings & love

My little kids have been sick as of lately and my toddler isn't in her best form. Poor dear! Last night I cought her with some bright pink nail polish painting her nails, the dresser and her bed. Imagine her shock and protest when I took it from her and laid her back in her bed! Today I will {hopefully} be able to get that pretty polish off. Did I mention that the dresser is white?


Yesterday we made eggs in toast. So good and it will get my toddler to eat.
Take your price of bread and with a cookie cutter, cut out the center of the bread. Melt some butter in your fav egg pan. Place your bread on the pan and crack an egg into the middle. Cook until its done! That's it! You can also toast up the price of bread you cut out. This simple little thing can make the people you love so much, happier when they are not feeling well :)
Blessings and Happy Tuesday pretty ladies!!
