;D here there everywhere. Thanks Allisa for asking bout me. I have my last final tomorrow. I haven't had much time to study as my mom was out of town and my husband was going through and is now starting to come out of it, a really bad encephelopathy. Scared me and I had to watch him like a baby and hide the car keys and UGGGGGG. Was a nightmare till I was able to get him in the hospital for a few days to get rid of someof the massive amouts of ammonia that was invading his brain. Never seen him like this and he weighs 280=290 to my 140. Found him sleeping at the grocery store in the car, sleeping outside in the rain the other night, just lost all sense of reason. Hmmm/ So I have slept with one eye open. Thankfully they released him and his ammonia went wayyyyy down just hafta keep my eye on him.
Olivia is doinf great. I was thinking about her yesterday and was gushing when I watched her tell a stranger NO gotta get my mommy and ran like mad to find me. We were at the park when a guy was talking to her and he didn't see me. WELL the guy asked heer if she wanted some grapes as he was munching on em and she was STARING at his every bite. LOL... She said nO (thats a really big plus to food nonetheless and grapes her fav) then said what she said and ran to find me all panicked. I took her out for coldstone creamery afterwards. I was proud as all get out. Thinking last night when I should have been studying, I realized how blessed we are to have a girl with such a STRONG PERSONALITY.The child never was and never will be a pushover and I love it. She shared in class the next day how she walked away from a stranger who was gonna give her grapes and her mommy took her out for coldstone.
I went on and on how proud I was of her the guy could've been harmless but I and she doesn't know that he didn't look icky but she is smart enuf to know you don't hafta look icky to be a naughty person. :)So for now I am smiling and she is doing great and gonna be a third grader next year. Kyle got into the gate program the gifted and tal one so I have kids who are sooo opposite and I am sooo glad. How boring it would be to have 2 utterly typical kids. LOL ..... Its the Venice attitude I grew up with. Differences were always celebrated there. Not as much now its gotten too tres' chic and yuppie to live there now but still the old venice locals know and will agree to their wonderful attitude and spirit that the neighborhood ingrained in my brain. :)Rambling here steff
