I hope I am not being offensive to hope that giving yourself grace might become a morning routine. Give yourself enough and maybe you'll even find yourself with enough to pass on to others.

Looking back, sick baby days were some of my favorite parenting days.

There is only so much energy we have. Mamma, yours has been depleted. You have earned some down time. Hugs.

I probably should make this grace giving thing a daily routine. I tend to give others too much and forget about myself. Sick baby days are bittersweet. She's just grown out of the "constantly hold me" phase. I can't believe how long it lasted and I definitely missed it already but I could have done without her moaning in discomfort. She threw up a few times this week and then started having diarrhea. I think she's on the mend. Despite the fact that she's been good about sipping pedialyte and drinking other fluids, she's sleeping soo much. No fever but if she's still eating scarcely we'll be headed back to her doctor Tuesday. Thanks for the hugs.

Amazing grace as a self-gift day. Now that's a good idea. Thanks, MammaBear02.

I did the dumbest thing today. I charged my earbuds, unplugged the block and put the block in my little bag instead of the earbuds. I wasn't happy about that when I got to the gym. What a dummy!
