He’s home. Here’s what he missed. It was LOADS of fun.
-> Fleapalooza 2011 and the crazy cleaning to ensure it didn't "infect" the whole house
-> My falling pretty sick from using way too many varied (and strong) cleaning products - stupid I know
-> Friend’s child missing nightmare when she didn’t get off the right bus to my house
-> Fifth’s Disease x 2 kids (which was misdiagnosed)
-> Houseguests (waiting on base housing to open up) – they were great though (mom, baby & dog)
-> Bead up the child's nose ER fiasco - that was pretty embarassing to explain and still not sure how that transpired
-> Incessant Hail Storms
-> Children's Night Terrors
-> Preschooler tantrums
-> Dog repeatedly ripping up my gardening/landscaping attempts
-> Tsunami Middle of the Night Mad Dash to Gas Station and related freak outs
-> Earthquake Drills
-> Preschooler tantrums
-> Ridiculous second grade sleepover drama (and some giggles)
-> Preschooler tantrums
-> Choking debacles of a child and subsequent swallowing issues
-> Preschooler tantrums
-> Tricare not wanting to approve some treatment
-> Mommy tantrums
-> The worry over the government possibly shutting down and possibly not seeing a paycheck
-> Friend fell sick and I took care of her kids (happily) thereby providing with a (hungry) brood of 6
Gosh, he’s missed all the fun. Such is the life of a Coastie wife, right?
Unfortunately, he also missed
- Various holidays
- A child's First Communion
- and two birthdays :(
- Oh, and the culmination of potty training (no more diapers in this house!!!!)
Such is the life of a Coastie.
Can I go on vacation now?
