Anticipation

Have you ever waited for something and after it arrives you are kind of let down? Well, that's how I feel, I guess it's really the wait that is exciting. I had two amber necklaces and seven Green Mountain Diapers prefolds arrive yesterday. I was so excited and when they finally got here, I thought to myself why did I get so excited about prefolds and necklaces. Don't get me wrong they were everything I thought they would be, but I was still let down a little. It's like my grandma told me, after you've been waiting with anticipation for nine months for a baby, you give birth and reality hits. I think with my diapers and necklaces, reality hit and I realized that the diapers are just going to be peed and pooped in and the necklaces are just going to be worn.
It turns out that our middle daughter does have strep too, in fact she is still running a fever today. So we have three children taking antibiotics at the same time, I hope this doesn't happen often. Our oldest and youngest are starting to act a little better, so I have hope by this weekend everyone will be 100% again. Our middle daughter that no longer takes naps, is now laying in our bed sleeping at 11:37 am. You know she is really sick if she asks if she can go to sleep during the day because she normally begs us not to put her to bed at night.
