The kids helped me quite a bit today. :-)
The good thing is they think working like this is a HUGE treat, or "reward" if you will. Being able to spray cleaning products, does not seem like cleaning to a 5 and 6 year old. It s waaay different than me asking them to clean their room or put their clothes away.
I have a lot on my mind, especially with the upcoming Fourth of July weekend. A lot of feelings and thoughts that I can't quite get together yet. Mostly about the anxiety and the different aspects of Epilepsy that no one really realizes. No one, including people that have been battling this beast with us. the things that seem so small , or not even part of epilepsy, but in reality , would not even be relevant in our lives, if the beast would not have ever entered it.
So with that being said, I promise to update, hopefully every day this week. I have been avoiding the blog, as I have not known how to deal with what I am actually feeling inside. Well, that, and the fact that I have still been dealing with a 102 fever. mommies are NOT supposed to be sick...there is simply no time for a mommy to be sick. She has too much to do!
Here is a pick of Sweet "Mini Coop" at 3 weeks old. He now stays awake for a couple hours in the morning and a couple hours in the late afternoon. this is huge, as we honestly thought something was wrong with the kid, as he slept soooo much! it's been 5 years since we were parents to a newborn, we are relearning everything....well, at least I am.

Congrats on the new baby!! (I miss having new babies around the house :) )
As for the 4th of July and epilepsy....I am wondering about that myself. Lately, loud, unexpected noises have been setting off seizures for Elisabeth....I'll keep my fingers crossed that she (and Jake) do okay :)
