My Little Wild Child & Thanks

Last night after Emma had her bath, her Daddy put her hair up in pigtails and she asked for braids. It looked so cute (should have taken a picture of that). This morning, she over slept so I didn't have time to really do anything with it expect to take what was left of the braids out and neaten (is that even a word) it up. She thought it was so funny and just kept laughing. I started calling her Wild Child because her hair was so wild and she would just laugh harder. So then we started laughing. As soon as I mentioned taking a picture of it, she ran and stood by the door and waited for me. It was pretty funny. And yes, before anyone asks me....I did send her to school like this!
On a more personal note...I want to thank everyone for the prayers that have been lifted up in our behalf over the past 3 weeks. I have had so many phone calls, cards and hugs and I appreciate them all. I am having more good days than bad at this point, but it still sneaks up on me at times. I have a lot of "I am supposed to be..." thoughts, which I guess will also get better with time. I had my final blood work done last week and my hcg level had finally gone down to zero. I was still having some issues with my progesterone levels but they are continuing to go down as well. I am hoping that in another week or so, my body will be back to normal (at least as normal as it has ever been). On a positive, I have managed to lose some weight so now I have a good excuse to go buy some new clothes :-)

Love the hair! I would have sent Grace to school like that too! Now that I'm thinking about it, I wish I had taken her picture today, she had on pink shorts, pink tye dyed t-shirt, a purple zip up jacket (it's 80 degrees!) and her black and white hand me down tennis shoes.

Still praying for ya girl, and go you! on getting some new clothes!

Her hair is cute! :) My girls love when they have crazy hair like that (and I do too).

Glad to hear the good days outnumber the bad. Maybe new clothes will give you a little bonus boost. ;)

So cute! I love it. I'm sure the other girls at school were jealous and I bet she was proud.

I'm glad you're starting to feel better. Congrats on the weight loss...that's awesome!

I love her hair. It's so spunky! Glad you are getting your spirits back. Still thinking of you. Yes, we need to get together and let our kids play very soon.

FUNNY! Love that hair-do Emma!
Shopping for new clothes when things have been crummy is what I like to call "Retail Therapy"..... It always helps me feel better! Happy Shopping!!
