Bad Mom

I feel like a horrible mom. I didn't take Steven to the doctor when he first got sick. I honestly believed that he just had a little virus. I need to be more careful with Kristen around. Her immune system is fragile.

So were you caught up in the balloon boy saga yesterday? I know we were. I'm relieved that they found the boy in the attic. But how wonderful the way everyone comes together in a rescue effort. No hesitation. We should be so willing to help each other even for less dramatic needs.

The cats were relieved to have Kristen and I home last night. Claire will be punishing Kristen for not sleeping here though. She comes and sleeps with me to let Kristen know that she should have been home. Lulu on the other hand is laying across my arms while I'm trying to type. She's making her presence known! She pins her ears back in irritation and flicks her tail as my arms move around. Now she has left in a huff.

Headed north today to get Mom. I'm excited to have company for the ride. Katie is catching a ride to Wichita.
