Wow what a day, I had to wake up early today to take Adam to preschool. It's sooo early(7:30) but I am grateful he has school today because I have to go to a meeting a Aaron's school today. Chris was not able to stay home and help out today, so I have to plan on taking the bay with me. Oh well at least it's just one baby, and not the baby plus a 3 year old. As you may know Zack, the baby is sick with a terminal Illness that effects the brain and the body. It's an unknown type of leukodystrophy. Anyway, back to my day.... 7:30 Adam is off to school. I go into Zachary's room, and he is just waking up. It is so cute to see him stretching and he beautiful eyes looking around the room. I pick him up for a love and a cuddle before I have to get going on my day, and what do you know, he starts into one of his seizure fits. I should have known better, he needs to wake up slowly. To much stimulation to soon often sends him into seizures. It's Ok, I know what to do, he just needs his meds. I get his Dad out of bed to watch him so I can take a shower. I shower as fast as I can and run downstairs to get a quick bit to eat. Zachary is resting nicely in bed so I have time for a quick Hot Coco and toast. My version of Coffey. I am a coco addict. Then I rush to get Zach's food and 9:00 meds. He needs to get them early because my meeting is at 9:00. I plug Zach into he feeding machine and off we go. We make it just in time, and sit down for the meeting to start. OOPS! What’s that smell? Zack needs a diaper change. Out to the nurses office, a quick change, and we are back in the meeting. The meeting is going well then about 9:45 Zach starts into one of his fits. I pull out the Valium in the middle of the meeting and put it into the G.I. tube like its no big deal. The tone of the meeting has now changed as all eyes are on Zach and things start moving much faster. They wrap things up, and Zack is glad that we are finally leaving. He falls a sleep in the car. As soon as I get home, I see that I have about three messages on my caller ID from public schools. This time it's Kayla she has been trying to call me for the past hour and has already thrown up twice. Thank goodness I haven't gotten Zack out of his car seat. We get back in the car and go get Kayla. After we pick her up, we hurry to a drive-thru to get kayla a quick snack. She is starving. On the way home I realize that Christian might miss his bus. His bus comes at 11:00. (He only goes half day.) So I call him on the cell phone. No answer. WOW! Did he actually remember to get out to the bus stop on his own? On the way home I see his bus driver waiting. Christian is not there. I send kayla into the house, to tell him to hurry, and he is still in the shower. I bring the baby inside and yell at him to hurry. He gets dressed and runs out the door just in time to see the bus driving away. I guess it's back into the car again. I ask Kayla to watch the baby, something I have never done before, and run Christian to school. On the way home is realize that I am going to miss Adams preschool bus. I call Kayla, (what would I do with out my cell phone?) and tell her to watch for Adams bus. When I get home the baby is happy in bed, and Adam is home from school. The first thing I hear is a very happy "Mommy your home, I'M HUNGRY!" OK, it's time to slow down. I feed Adam and give the baby his 11:00 meds which are by this time a little late. Soon Adam is eating and the baby is falling asleep. It's 1:00 now and I'm trying to convince Adam to take a nap. He is not quite ready, so he sits on my lap while I check my e-mail. He asks me to see the puppies on the computer. Can this 3 year old be talking about the puppy cam that all of the adults are talking about. I have heard it's an Internet sensation. How does a three year old know about these things? So we search for "puppy cam" and easily find it. Everyone says that It is so cute and people cant stop watching it. Adam is loving it. We see 4 sleeping puppies and 2 restless puppies that are crawling all over the sleeping ones and ripping up a plastic sheet. OK, the puppies are cute, but all I can look at is the poop in the corner and the ripped of stuff all over. Just looking is making me stressed, and I am already stressed enough. I tell Adam he has 5 more minuets and it's time for a nap. I get him down and the baby is still asleep. I know this time is precious. What should I do? I have loads of laundry waiting to be done, dishes in the sink, and a not so clean house. Hmmmm maybe I should clean, or maybe I should eat a bowl of ice cream. Nah!! I just write this blog.....
