valentines schmalentines

Valentines Day is so fun for the kids! I loved getting little goody bags ready for Bryce's classmates and then hiding little prizes around the house marked "to Bryce from Brody" for Bryce to find! One of his favorite little V-Day surprises was his new batman underwear. He said he couldnt wait to put them on his tootie. Justin spoiled us all and it was fun. Now we have to find a way to explain that Christmas only comes once a year because Bryce kept wondering if Santa had dropped off those treats....Brody has been wheezing a little through the night so we moved into the "yellow zone" for treatments....meaning adding extra puffs every couple hours and even doing the neb. a couple times a day. He hates it..but you can just never be too careful. We are all so anxious to see my mom after her procedure today. We will get there on Tuesday night and it just could not come soon enough. It has been a long time since we have seen her which hurts my heart so much. We are just not able to travel as easily as we like and we have to be soooo cautious of muffins health. Hopefully we can find a way to get her treatments here in SA...please pray for this because she really needs to be with us!
We got to hang out with some of our favorite friends this Sunday...and even though Jonny made Brody cry we still love him! Friends have really made our world go round lately. It is so good to have people in your life that you can talk about everything to and nothing to. I love the dynamic of different friendships and when you can really be yourself and let your guard down is when you know just how lucky you are! The people that realize you are not a lunatic and the ones who laugh even when you are not remotely funny or the ones that speak so openly and even the ones who put you in your place and tell you to "get a grip woman" ...these are the friends to cherish!
