Free-style (Entry 19)

When it rains it pour.....

So I have heard this statement several times but the last to weeks gave it true meaning. Here it a list of events on top of school and work that have occupied me lately.

Oct 31- My 1yr old niece falls into fireplace and gets third degree burns on right hand and arm and is then air flighted out of town(in az) to burn unit.
Nov 3- My pregnant sister( the one that has the baby in the burn unit)starts to bleed and the doctors cant stop it and don't even know what is causing it.
Nov 6-My sister has my new niece at only 32wk along, she is on 2nd floor and my 1yr old niece is in burn unit on 7th floor.
Nov 8- My 9yr old niece's b-day, calls me crying because her mom and sister are in the hospital an missed her b-day.
Nov 9- My son was running, fell, and hit his eye on the coffee table and cracks his check bone.
Nov 11-My sons 2nd b-day
Nov 13- In-laws come into town for the weekend
Nov 14-My sons b-day party
Nov 17-My son jumps off couch falls hit the coffee table again and has to get 3 staples in the back of the head. Well in the ER with him my mom calls and tell me my 16yr old cousin died.

Needless to say I have not got to read much lately however, I have decided(besides need to get a new coffee table, I would like to get my son a Tag by Leapfrog for Christmas. Has anyone used one before? If so what do you think? My son loves books and I think that this might not only be educational but also help occupy him this winter since he won't be able to run off all of his energy.

  1. Oh, Sami! I'm sorry to hear all of the difficulties your family has experienced, especially difficulties associated with children! I hope everyone is doing better. I haven't tried Leapfrog, so I can't answer that question. Nancy

  2. I too know what you mean. I will not labour you with my troubles, but to say it seems like when one thing goes wrong, it opens a gateway for many others to come. But don't worry, all things come to a resolution and it will work out for the good. I know things will improve for you, so try to see the rain for its deeper meaning of watering what good is to come.
