Grace has had a cold flu thing. She keeps waking up in the night totally congested and confused. But looking on the bright side Grace now has a new favorite thing- that blue apparatus they give you at the hospital to clean out your baby's nose (I have heard it called a snot sucker but it must have some more dignified name). When Grace sees me wielding that baby her face lights up- which is strange considering her horrified reaction to Kleenex.
During this long week I received some packages from my parents. I just have to say I LOVE getting mail, well fun mail. Not the lame generic mail everyone gets like credit card offers or super saver coupons. My mom had sent Grace's Christmas toys and a whole box of books. And not just any books, the books I loved to read in my long passed youth. FYI I am a massive repeat reader if I like the book. I read or heard somewhere once that old books are like dear friends and in my experience that is true. So right now I am enjoying Anne of Windy Poplars. I first read that book when I was 9 so it is a bit different as a 26 year old, my cynicism is cutting in. But there is nothing more enjoyable then curling up with some coco and a good book.
