Happy day to all the moms in my life. I hope Mother's Day has been a wonderful day for all of you!!
Today was the single most relaxing day I have spent in two years. I rather enjoyed the whole day... except for the part when Brennan stopped breathing and turned blue... He is alive and well and that is the best present I could have today. (The story is not that exciting, I just said that for an attention getter-- did it work?)
Brenny has had a fever for two days and it got high in the middle of the night. He got nauseous and started to throw up, gagged on his bile and couldn't get it out. He did turn blue and we were panic stricken, then he finally threw up all over Kwint's shirt and everything was fine.
It did remind us how precious our children are and how grateful we are for them. I am so grateful to be a mother. As hard as it can be, it is the only job I have ever wanted and I can't imagine greater rewards.
So, I stayed home from church with the sickie and took two naps. We had a picnic outside for lunch since the weather was very nice and not too hot. We went to Tam's for dinner and her kids cooked and did the dishes. (Paper plates- it was rough for them) but it was very nice to not cook or clean and we had sooo much fun. We truly love our sis.
This week Kaeleb got to go to a pizza place for a field trip. He made his own dough but says he didn't like the pizza he made.
Kaeleb's imagination runs away with him sometimes. Tonight on the way to Tam's there was a gorilla in the car which he punched into a bush and then a frog fell through the roof and nearly took us all out. My favorite K-dude story of the week was when Kwint asked him to do something and he ran through the house yelling "Not now Dad! I can't do anything right now! There's a boulder chasing me!"
Brennan is continuing to add to his vast vocabulary. He loves to bang on the door to our bedroom early in the morning and yell "Dad! C'mere! Soccer ball, rard!" (rard means yard) He also begs to "dig a hole, rard" He would be outside 24/7 if we could. We'll have to get creative when the heat sets in.
I have decided to move to Disneyland and try out for a Disney Princess. Last week I curled my hair for church and bore my testimony. When I stood up, my friend's 3 year old asked his Dad if I was Giselle. (from Enchanted) He said, "No, that's Sister Kemp." The little guy thought for a minute, then shook his head and said "No. It's Giselle." Is it weird if I'm flattered?

Oh, I love Giselle from enchanted. And yes..you do look like her. She's gorgeous!
Yes! I knew you were keeping something from me. I mean, I knew you could sing beautifully, but I had no idea you could act! How was Kwint with the kissing scene?
You do look a lot like her.
I always love the stories about your boys and their imaginations. Glad you had a realaxing Mother's Day. Love you guys!
We've been telling you since the McDaniel reunion last year that you should be a Disney princess. Now do you believe us? It's nice to know that your prejudiced mother isn't alone when I think you're beautiful.
I am glad your little guy is okay! My Harrison used to turn blue and almost pass out anytime he got really upset. We would have to blow in his face so he would catch his breath, but the first time he did it we ended up in the ER. I understand how scary it can be they are pretty precious.
You would make the perfect princess at Disneyland, I think you should make your dream a reality! I am really hoping we make it down there for memorial weekend. Most of my family is going (I think) we will for sure have to get together!
