Nobody should wake up the way our house did this morning. Poor Stella had a blow out up her back in bed last night and woke up with poop all over her hands and arms and back, the sheets and her jammies were a mess. I ran a bath and got her all cleaned up and it was forgotten as quickly as it happened but it sure did start our day off on the wrong foot.
I've been working some more in the house, catching up on laundry and shredding old (like our first place old) receipts and bills that I keep finding. Mom is coming over tomorrow and Saturday and if we make progress like we did last Friday we could have the lower level looking really awesome.
Luca has his TGIGF thing at the preschool tomorrow. He has no idea what is going on and I figure its easier to just take him and let him figure it out than try and explain that its not school or Sunday school but its at the school but its not school....you know very well how these conversations go lol.
I talked to Grandma yesterday, they are coming up the night before Stella's party and getting a room so they can go to Luca's soccer game in the morning then stay for her party. I'm glad they will get to see him play and he'll be thrilled.
We're closing in on a month with you gone. It's gone fast but incredibly slow at the same time. The exhaustion is starting to kick in for me. It's not like we haven't gone over to mom and dads a few times or kept busy, we have, but finding 5 minutes without a child whining or fighting or yelling or stomping or just jabbering away is starting to take its toll. Today was a GRUMPY day. I miss you so much. I can't wait for you to be home. I'm so looking forward to scratchy facial hair and loud snoring and eye rolling....really, I kinda miss it ;)
I want you to try and call your mom again...soon! It's not really nice that you've only talked to her once, I'm sure she's worried about you and it doesn't have to be long. I know she likes to guilt trip and all that but remember, we love you just the way you are and we are so proud of you and what you are doing. I really love you. Writing letters, short phone calls...kinda feels like we're dating again lol.
Keeping your pillow warm,
