Caleb, oh how I love you!

Is this cute or what? While Caeden is off at Kindergarten Caleb and I get to spend a lot of time together. I feel bad that 99% of it is at home right now while I am throwing up, but he seems to make the most of it. As we play "guys" (action figures of every kind) he'll say, "I have a wonderful idea...." or "that's awesome," "amazing." Last night I looked at him and said, "you're pretty cute" he looked back at me and said, "that's right, God made me cute AND smart!" So thankful for the smiles he brings during this tough season for me!

He has been so sweet in this last month, every time, and I mean every time he would hear me throw up, he'd come ask, "mom, you ok?" I kept thinking wow, that is one thoughtful 2 year old. Now that I've been throwing up so long it has turned from "mom, you ok?" to "you are always throwing up", or "I don't want to hear you throw up anymore!" I know buddy, I don't want to throw up anymore either, I am sure hoping that we are nearing the end of this for all our sakes.


I'll leave you with one last funny. Grandma Shelley was over helping with dishes in the kitchen, I was on the couch and Caleb was in and out of all the rooms doing his own thing. At one point I thought he's awfully quiet right now... "Caleb", I said, "whatcha doing?" He came out and said, "I don't like that brownie very much!" I said, "what brownie?" He came back out with a package of daddy's cigars with a nibble off the end and said, "these." :) for the next 45 minutes we sat on the couch together with a bucket in between us because he said he had a stomach ache and thought he too was going to throw up. :) I don't think he'll be looking to smoke cigars anytime soon. LOL!
