Another one is sick, this time it is Grace's turn...we went to Paradiso for Cory's sister's birthday last night. She fell asleep in my arms around 7p. When we got home she had a 103 temp, we jostled her awake for some medicine. She was as groggy as ever, drooling-but in Gracie fashion had a smile on her face for us. I was expecting an early morning wake up call but she did not come in until 7:30!!! She had a big smile on her face and was looking so much better:) Holden was reveling in the "alone" time with mom and dad. Of course, I had to tune into the Bachelor...the suspense who will he choose but then not choose:) Holden and Cory watched it with me and I had to shush them more than a few times. We let him stay up a little later to see who got the ring. I forgot to tell him that on the after show he took the ring back and chose the other girl!

I did find a couple of grave markers that caught my eye...it is so hard to even start this process. What to have inscribed, picture no picture, quote no quote...and then talking to someone? I wish this could just all be done without having to face someone and discuss it, but I want to do it...I do not trust it to anyone else. I keep asking myself, "Is it really that big of a deal?" For some reason, it is.

I am really hoping that the warmer weather approaches soon. I think it will really lifts my spirits. I am feeling really dull. A little empty. A little angry.
