End of Vacation

Well, yesterday was the end of my vacation with my little one. Now, we're back to our usual routine of weekeday visits and lots of driving. Unfortunately, my little one was ill most of her vacation time with me. However, I was fortunate that she was ill at home with me so that I could take care of her. She's back to normal now but did have a fever for a few days. It's really scary when young ones have a fever. As her mommy, worry alot. Fortunately, the fever came down after a couple of days.

Summer Vacation

I'm so happy! My little one will be able to spend a whole week at home with mommy. She loves going to school so I'm going to continue to let her attend even on her vacation time. The weekend is going to be full of activities for her and as soon as I tell her, I'm sure she'll be estatic! I'll be bringing her home later today and she's looking forward to going to buy sheets for her mattress at school. She's looking forward to staying longer at school with her friends and has asked me numerous times if she could nap at school. I think she's growing up. :)

Again to Papas!

My little one left this afternoon after school to her daddy's. Fortunately, I have the opportunity to spend some quality time with her before she goes. After school, I took her to buy new shoes and a few accessories. They just grow up so quickly. It seems like I'm buying shoes every few months. After our shopping spree, we went home to try on the new items and spend quality time together before she headed off. Prior to her daddy coming up, she told me that she didn't want to go. I told her that it was ok. Mama would pick her up on Sunday and we'll have lots of fun again. She was reluctant but went. I miss her already but know that this is my opportunity to focus on building a better life for her in the future.

4th of July

Yipee! My little one gets to stay home with mommy for 2 days. We had a wonderful lazy day yesterday and today. We went to the beach, watched videos (educational children's), did some bike riding and basically, lazed around all day. I don't remember the last time I was able to do this. Today, my little one and I are going to bake cookies at uncle's house. Maybe later because it's so hot! She's napping now so we'll see what she would like to do when she wakes up. :)

Emotionally Relieved...

Last Thursday was the end of vacation for my little one and her daddy. It was a long week for me; however, I have learned to adjust. Last year was extremely difficult with her being so young and being gone for such a long time. This year, I made sure that I kept very busy so that I don't have too much time to dwell on the thought that she was away. I'm happy that she's back and so is she. We've been doing our usual "mommy and me" things since she's been back. My little one loves Souplantation so we had dinner there on Friday evening. Chinatown is another one of her favorites so we spent half a day there on Saturday. Last night was the bookstore. She loves reading and I always encourage it. Well, we'll see what today holds. I'm picking her up from her daddy's later this evening.
