Easy come easy go...

The first few words of my playlist song totally define my life right now! Easy come easy go...

Macy is sick, again. But it is different this time. She began throwing up yesterday and has had fevers. She is lethargic, unwilling to eat solids and has diarrhea. I am thinking it's either the flu or C diff. I don't want to end up back in the hospital and I am watching her closely. But, it may come to that. She looks like she has lost weight over the last few weeks and kids with Hirschsprungs disease can become dehydrated way faster that typical kids.

It is so weird that she was SO well over the summer and in the fall. Then Bam... everything comes crashing down. I am feeling really guilty about not getting her the flu shot this year. I honestly didn't even think about it because she was so well.

On a happier note. Kyla is so cute playing on my Ipad. She can open netflicks, pick a movie and start it. She can play games herself. It has been a great thing for my sanity this past week. She has changed SO much in the past year. Still sassy and stubborn, but she is getting sweeter with age! She says the funniest things like this just last night.

Barry - "Kyla, it is time for bed. It is almost 10:00. You need to go to sleep in your princess bed."

Kyla - "Daddy, I can't go to bed.

Barry - "Why Kyla?"

Kyla - "Because I will cry in my bed, daddy. I will CRY."

Me - "Too bad Kyla, it's bedtime!"

Potty training her has been so easy! Which is a huge blessing! She pretty much trained herself.

and what would I do without my almost 9 yr old Tommy. Seriously! Macy puked while I was at Walmart grocery shopping. When we got home, I had to run upstairs and change Macy out of her clothes and get her taken care of. Well, Tommy brought in all the groceries for me. A few minutes after that I saw him sitting on the couch with his eyes closed. When I asked him what he was doing, he said, "I am saying a prayer for Macy!"   Really! What would I do without him!

Tommy is so sweet. Such a good helper. I told my kids this story to teach them a lesson that it doesn't kill them to help out without being asked!!! Hope Macy gets better soon!
