I have few friends that I talk to on a regular basis. One might call me antisocial, I know that is how I refer to myself. As such, I consider them all to be my best friends. I do not consider one person to be a "best friend" because of how long I have known them or how much we have done for each other etc etc etc. If I can come to you and talk to you and gossip with you, then I love you and will gladly call you a best friend. Simple as that. Which really makes todays post difficult, as the challenge is your favorite picture of your best friend. So I think I will do the picture of the best friend that I have been spending time with nonstop for the past few weeks as our kids got sick together and we figured, well if they are going to be sick, they might as well have fun together since they have already been exposed to everything. -Did I mention my boys have pneumonia? Yeah, that has been fuuuun.- Also, because we recently took a picture together!
So there is one of my friends. I did not ask her permission to use her name so you do not get to know it since there may be creepers reading this (you should know by now how paranoid I am) She is a mother to three boys, two of them the perfect age for The Monster to play with, and the third a sweet little baby still. The Monster is constantly asking about her boys and her asking when they will be over again, asking if he can go see them, building castles and telling me I absolutely can NOT knock them down when I am cleaning because he built them special for his friends, and I would break his heart if I did such a thing. Yeah, my four year old told me I would break his heart haha, I love the things that come out of his mouth. He is becoming more like me because I do not really censor myself around him and he picks things up like any four year old does, which is super fast. For example we were watching Dora and she of course asked where Swiper was. Monster yelled back at the TV "Behind you, genius!" ...or as my friend up there ^ told me, she had him at her house the other day and she told him something that disappointed him and he came back with, "Well that's stupid" I do not know whether to giggle or to be scared!! Anywho, back to my friend! She is pretty much awesome. We go on walks in an attempt to escape the kids for a few minutes, only to come home and are still surprised that the kids fathers idea of "dinner" is to put goldfish and gummy fruits on the counter and tell them that they are there. We have fun, our kids have fun, our husbands have fun, what more could you want in a friend? Their family is so compatible with ours, I may cry when one of us gets stationed elsewhere. In fact, I know I will! She is one of three women in this state that I love and I have no idea what I will do without any of them!
Monster and Munchkin <3 |
Now onto regular life, as I mentioned, the boys are sick. No me gusta! However after antibiotics, and albuteral breathing treatments every four hours for a couple weeks, they are better. Well The Munchkin is better, he still has not regained his appetite, but he is back to sleeping in his own bed and sleeping through the night without waking up crying from coughing up all the icky in his chest! The Monster caught it at the tail end of The Munchkins cycle and so is just now getting the worse of it. He is now in our bed at night and waking up not being able to breathe. We were able to move Munchkin's breathing treatments to twice a day, while Monsters are still every 4 hours. None of this has stopped them from realizing that it is finally sunny outside and wanting to be outside while there is daylight, so that is good news :) Hopefully just another week of this and Monster will be feeling better!
