My Beautiful Babies

A week ago today I was extremely sick with a migraine, the weather being the culprit. It was one of the worst ones I've ever had, and I didn't think it would ever go away. My stomach wasn't cooperating, and as a result, I "lost" 3 of my migraine pills...had my head not been pounding, I probably would have attempted to salvage them lol. For those of you unfamiliar with migraine medicine, I get 6 pills for $90. No generics.

Now, I know that my babies are awesome. And, I know that because I'm the mama, I probably tend to be somewhat biased in my opinions of their knowledge and excellence. BUT...let me just tell you...I have THE MOST AMAZING, SMART, SWEET, CARING, LOVING, AND COMPASSIONATE BABIES IN THE WORLD.

While I was throwing up in the bathroom, Gus brought me a new ice pack...which Maya had gotten out of the freezer by herself with a kitchen chair. They both followed me back into the bedroom where Maya proceeded to rub my head, as she has learned to do by observing my mom and Sam. When I finally realized that the migraine was causing a situation of role reversal, I knew it was time to call Mom to come pick all of us up so the kids could at least have a somewhat 'normal' day.

There was no way I could get them ready to go...every piece of light and sound just made me want to puke, so I was doing my best to be as still and quiet as possible. I made it out to the living room, sat on the ottoman, and waited for Mom to pull up. A few minutes passed, and out came Maya from her bedroom...completely dressed--clean undies, shirt, shorts, socks and shoes...AND they all matched!!! lol If that wasn't enough to bring a smile to my face and heart, she then began dressing Gabriel. Not even just dressing him, though. She changed his diaper. She took off the onesie he slept in, put on a clean one, and finished with his shorts, socks and boots.

Absolutely precious.

Aren't children just awesome? And, isn't it just absolutely amazing how God knows exactly what we need? I remember being in tears when I found out I was having a boy...I sooo wanted Maya to have a sister. Thank goodness that His foolishness is wiser than my wisdom!!! I don't know what I would do without them in my life.

I hope you enjoy the pics.

Love you,
Sarah
