Day 159

Yesterday Elijah and I had our mommy and son day and even though it took every ounce of my energy it was worth every second. We went to Johnny's where he ate until he was too full to shove in another bite and then we played video games in the arcade. Next we went to the mall and got  tickets for Monsters University and he just wanted to walk around the mall because if had been so long since he has been there. After the movie in which he had popcorn coke and candy we went to build a bear  and be made a dog. That was the first time in the world he was able to go in there and make his own pal. I had to go to the bath and body works sale where I got $165 worth of product for $32. That bag was so heavy to carry around, and when I set it in the front seat, the car kept telling it to put on its seatbelt. Our last part of the adventure took us to McDonalds and home. He said it was the best day ever. It has been so long since just he and I did something. We used to go on dates  with each of the children alone and all together but lately I have been so sick I have been afraid to leave the house. I let them go with Clint because I don't want to ruin their fun when in the middle of whatever it may be, I have to go home because I am too sick and they have to suffer. I know they would all rather have me there no matter what and I try to go sometimes. After yesterday I have never seen my baby boy more happy.

I go to the doctor Monday and have a procedure on Wednesday. I will let you know how all of that goes. I think I need to go back to sleep now, but I will be back soon.
