75 Days Until Tulip Time!



The countdown is on my Chickadees! All this holiday jazz is behind us and Momma is looking forward to embracing milder temperatures.
I haven`t made any recent entries because we just weathered a raging storm. My two little monkeys were very sick last month. You both endured tonsillitis. I felt so sorry for both of you! Fevers came and went over the course of four days and reached very high temperatures. We trekked to the doctor`s office twice in one week. I was so worried and we were all beyond exhausted.
Momma knows what tonsillitis feels like. I was afflicted with the dreaded sickness, on more than one occasion.
Nikki, you couldn`t even eat because your throat was so raw and inflammed. Momma had to use a syringe and feed you this protein-type concoction, which I developed to keep some meat on your bones.
Ruby, you were suprisingly able to drink your bottles. This provided me with great relief because you are a very picky eater and you can`t afford to lose any weight, my little Thumbellina.
I fed you both puddings and ice cream, which is something very special in itself. Momma doesn`t like her babies to have any sweets:)
It goes without saying that I am very happy that you are both back to being your happy and healthy selves. We stayed away from the Skorija kids during the holidays, but we still had a wonderful time together with Uncle Andrew, Auntie Meena, baby Maya and the rest of the brave Varga children.
I will now begin to write more consistently and we begin the countdown to tulip time! As always I love you both completely.
