Update

I thought I would just write a quick update about what's been happening in our family. This year has truly been crazy and stressful! All December through February we were all sick off and on. Then at the end of February when I was actually feeling very good, and better then I had in a long time, I got in my car accident. That was a lot to handle. We had to look for a new car. That same time my husband Subaru stopped working and it was not worth fixing. So, we had to buy TWO new cars in the same month! SO stressful! Then to add on to that, we have been looking for a house! I am very excited about this, but it really is hard work! You know going into it, that it is going to be hard, but you do not truly know until you are doing it! We found the house we wanted, badly, in Herriman. but it went under contract the same day we were going to make an offer! Hours before we did! So sad! That was my first major disappointment. We are now waiting to hear on another offer we made on a house in Riverton! We are crossing out fingers! We find out tomorrow night. I have never had a bedroom set, and I have already picked out what we are getting when we get the house. I am so excited! The boy's are also getting new beds. Then of course the hardest thing in my opinion. Getting the news that Gage needed his tonsils out. We took Skyler to the doctor for a cough he had, and the doctor was more concerned about Gage! He asked me if Gage was always congested, which he is in winter, and if he snored, which he does. (loudly!) He described him as sounding "Like Darth Vader!" It was true! Gage finally told me that he couldn't breath in through his nose anymore. I have heard that if you don't get this fixed, you could loose your sense of smell permanently! That is what he told me. That he was scared, but he wanted to breath through his nose! It broke my heart! So of course we made the appointment to get them looked at by the ENT, and he said they needed to go! We made the appointment over spring break so that he would only miss 2 days of school instead of 4. Well, it was pure hell seeing my child in so much pain! They actually give them a prescription for loratab! He was miserable for the first 4 days, and out of it due to the loratab. I would find him looking at me and he was not himself. He was so out of it that he had a Popsicle, and it was melting on him and he didn't realize it until I told him. Well, he is doing better now, not perfect, but better. It warms my heart to see him play a little, and smile! The Smile is what I have been missing! I miss his cute little voice too! He doesn't really talk cause it hurts. I cant wait until he is all better! I am so proud of my brave boy! I love you so much Gage!
