So, yesterday (Mother's Day) wasn't nearly as bad as I had feared. I didn't set out with any preconceived notions about what it would feel like, perhaps that helped. I didn't really think I'd be curled up "cursing" the hand I'd been dealt. I didn't think I'd be feeling sky high since I knew that I'd be aware of some of my sadness, partly due to the fact that it wasn't going to be the day that I had envisioned. It was a fine day.
Much of the day was spent cuddling on the couch with the kids. K is still feeling very under the weather and slept much of the day. R started acting "off" last night so I'm supposing that he's going to start to come down with the yuck that K has. On the upside it provides for lots of cuddle requests...
as long as the cuddling doesn't take place during an important part of a movie...
Yes, I was aware of missing Eli but it is what it is and there's nothing that I can do to change it. All that I can do is roll with the punches and make the best of what I do have which is pretty good!

im glad you had a gentle mothers day! your kids are so cute!
I am so glad Mother's Day was gentle on you. It was actually a good day for me too. I know what you mean when you say you are aware of missing Eli. I think I will always miss Brenna, but it's not crushing or heartbreaking anymore. It's just there, and I'm aware of it.
