In the grand scheme of things, all things and events that happened in the past are all lumped into YESTERDAY. Everything pressing and of the moment are considered TODAY. And the future, both the near and the far, is considered TOMORROW. I've made it over the hump, and I can finally enjoy the right now moments. Today has never been so grand!
Yesterday, I:
• Tended to all three kids who were sick with: pneumonia, the flu, strep throat
• Gocco'ed over 1000 cards for the shop
• Had our IEP meeting for my son Henry. We're moving forward now in such a great way!
• Announced the winners of the Valentine's Day Contest (via e-mail) -- The winners were: Amanda, Kelli, Allison, Lisa, and Courtney! All packages were shipped last week, save for Courtney and Lisa.
• Packaged up the largest wholesale order yet! The 3 months they gave me to fulfill the order was crucial to my sanity! Be gone package! Be gone! So happy that is over and done with. . .though my fingers are crossed that my products do well in hopes that they reorder!
• Watched as Hank and Alison attended the first annual Valentine's Day Ball at school.
Today I enjoy:
• Taking Kate to her Giggles and Wiggles class (which she loves so much!)
• Planning for Henry's 5th birthday party this weekend.
• Watching Alison and Henry overcome their fears in their karate class
• Reading in bed before falling asleep (5 pages a night is okay, right?)
• Listening to Kate rattle off a new word every day! Her newest faves? Elmo, owl, trash, and waffle.
Tomorrow I am:
• Looking forward to visits from out of town guests
• Enjoying time with friends + family + celebrations!
• Enjoying the present!
Sounds like a nice, busy, fulfilling life! Glad you're having such a great time ... and glad your kiddos are feeling better.

Congratulations on getting over the hump with that wholesale order, that's so exciting! :)

How funny you call your Henry "Hank". My husband wants so bad to call ours Hank, but I can't go there just yet. He's too cute and baby like to be a Hank yet!

Giggles and Wiggles class? I think I'd enjoy that too. I also have to say that I love your new stuff over at the Paper Princess and should indulge in buying some goodies (love the rubber stamps) Have a happy 5th Birthday Henry .... Jeez 5 already!!!

You busy, busy woman! Where do you find the time to do all this stuff?! Thanks for the V-day notecards in my "baby shower winner" package - I'm so in love with them! So much so I almost didn't send them out to friends but then I realized that's just plain greedy! Will be placing an order for more of your cute stuff soon - promise!!! Hope the party for Henry was great!

You have a very cute site here!! Sorry to hear about the kids. It's going around. My real job is at a pharmacy and I see this everyday! I hope they're better soon.
