Florence Nightingale

Yesterday morning.....

Me (muttering to myself): Ugh. Hubs gave me his cold. I think I'm going to throw up.

Princess: Oh poor mommy! Once when I was sick you made me a special bed on the sofa and you gave me a bowl and I put my throw-up in that! So it's okay mommy, I'll take care of you! What colour bowl do you want to put your throw-up in?

As it turns out, I wasn't sick, but I'm awfully lucky to have such a good and willing nurse.

*********************************************************
I'm down another 2 lbs, for a total of 10. Good thing too, because the Princess spent an hour and a half trying on all of her bathing suits and summer clothes yesterday, so she could decide what to pack for 'Flor-da'. (We're not going until April) I'm going to need to go shopping for something fabulous just to be seen with her!
