Okay, an update real quick before my husband and my son wake up! WHAT?? i'm awake before those two?? Well, no it is 2:06 in the afternoon and they are taking a nap! WHAT?? A NAP??? shouldn't jeremy be at work?? Well, let me update you!
Dont worry Jeremy still has his job!
I headed out this morning to do some grocery shopping (only the begining for my busy day of driving around... or so i thought). I shopped a little longer than i should have and karver was SICK of being there, every time the door was in sight he would yell BYE BYE BYE BYE!! haha FINALLy we headed out those doors and went BYE BYE! or not.... My beautiful blue saturn that i have had since my sophmore year of highschool wouldnt start. Now we have just moved here, i have no #'s to call! I called jeremy and told him the news. We had to wait at the store for almost 1 1/2 hours for jeremy to come home from work because he was delivering a job about an hour away. Needless to say Karver was NOT happy when we walked back into the store he so despritly wanted to leave in the first place! With karver SCREAMING for nearly an hour, and many simpathy looks from costumers and workers alike, I was beginning to break down! I'm pregnant and emotional, my son is FREAKING out in the middle of the store and did i mention that karver was sick yesterday with a high fever, well just my luck, it was coming back! Tears filled my eyes when i thought of sitting her for an hour then i thought, "Come what may and love it!" So i tried to LOVE my 20 month old fever stricken son screaming in the middle of the super market for over an hour, i tried to LOVE the fact that my car and just broke down and i needed to wait an hour or more for my husband to come..... I tried to LOVE the glares i was getting from all the people walking by, for some reason, i couldnt... I prayed!! HELP!! Then..... i did it! I DID LOVE IT!! I loved karver even though he was crying... I Loved that he was in my life! I loved that I had money to go to grocery store, I LOVED that my husband had a job at all a good job he loved and payed him good... .... I LOVED IT !! With a smile on my face i greeted the people that walked by me in the store! With love in my heart i held my sick son and let him blow snot on my shoulder.. and with EXTREME JOY I huged my husband when he reached the grocery store.
So that is why Jeremy is now home taking a nap, when he should be at work! Because he loves me.... He has a job that he can work around so he can care for me.... we have not yet decided what to do with the car, but Karver is feeling better and asleep! AND I LOVE IT!!!

Your post definitely made me smile, Ruth! I miss you and hope your beautiful family is doing well! You are one remarkable woman!
Ruth, Glad to hear how the story turned out after talking with you yesterday; that you got home and it ended as a "love it" experience. Brother Wirthlin is proud, I am sure. Hope Karver is doing better. Good luck with the car situation.
Love, Mom
