Good Riddance

This past week has been a doozy.  I am sure I have had a run of bad luck in the past but the last six days have really tested my patience, my security and my trust in tomorrow...that it HAS to be better.  Let's go back a week to last Saturday morning....

So this Summer we signed Paige up for Sluggers and Kickers with her friend Dylan.  It's a really fun program that introduces the kids to soccer and T-ball with other kids their age for 2 and a half hours on Saturday mornings for 6 weeks.  We are just 3 weeks into the session and Paige had decided to skip practice to attend her friend Oliver's birthday party. 

(scccreeaaaccchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh)...this is a REALLY loud record scratch...REALLY LOUD!!!!

So  I started the beginning of this post mid July.  I just logged into my account today, August 28th, to post about Paige's birthday and saw this unfinished post.  It made me laugh outloud realizing how I was about to tell you all how Paige came down with croup after the party and we spent the entire weekend in and out of urgent care, up to our elbows in Tylenol and Advil and how happy I was that everyone was healthy again. But nevermind on that...clearly there was more to come.  Let me give you a quick list of what has happened since then.

Paige had croup
Quinn had croup
2 trips in 2 days to urgent care
My car broke down (making a grand total of 3 times this summer)
My car was broken into and purse stolen (wallet, ID, keys, etc)
Paige got headlice for the 3rd time this year
She gave it to me
My laptop crashed and needed a new hard drive (thankfully it was still under warranty)
Our house flooded from a leak under our kitchen sink, well, more of a water explosion

So that has been July and August at our house.  I think I am ready for September.  

And tomorrow I will tell you ALL about Paige's 6th birthday!!!
