Thank you

My darling girl was sick today so we had a lot of time to lay low. I started the day with a visit to my trainer and signing on for four more months. My cleaning lady has taken a summer sabatical so the trainer is back in the budget and my house can tell. On my way home, I went by CVS to get a new thermometer before my husband left for work. The lady working today was at CVS the day that I made copies of my daughter's referral pictures.

We hadn't expected the darling photos in the mail when they arrived almost three years ago. I got a call on my way to work. When I called my husband to tell him that we were really having a baby, he thought my car had broken down. I had to sit through a meeting at Panera and drive to my office before I could see her darling face. We spent the night eating Chinese food and hand writing the announcements. The next day, I spent the morning at CVS making copies of her cute picture and mailing them to her grandparents and aunts and uncles who were also not expecting them. We wanted all of them to have the same experience as we did when her face finally arrived in the mail.

Every time I go to CVS, the same woman asks how my precious girl is doing and how she can't believe how big she is now. She always asks where she is if I happen to come in alone. When I explained that she was home sick today, she said, "Well, you must be feeling better. You are looking good." Can I just say thank you very much? I also have to wonder how bad I must have really looked when the kind lady at CVS is noticing a difference. However, she never pointed out that she noticed and that is a lesson worth passing on.

Blessings,

Cindy
