Lots of goodness + some sickness.

Can totally sympathise with on your recent trip with Simon to the ER. My 2 year old son was taken into hospital by ambulance last week with an asthma attack. He (and I) had to stay in there for a couple of nights. Not nice, frightening for him and for us. Hope your little man feels better soon.

great post . feel better Simon. Welcome to Kindergarten germs lol. As a nurse my kids have always been exposed to daycar germs but kindergaten really did both my kids in , but Spring is on the way. good luck and reamember wash hands, wash hands wash hands!!!!!!!!

So sorry to read that Simon is having a rough go of it. Hoping he is well in not time.
We are definitely NOT healthy right now either - we've super-sized the common cold x3. Me and the twins - the three sniffly stooges!
Hang in there, Ali. Sending healthy thoughts your way!

You know what they say "things happen in threes". So maybe that will be it for urgent care visits. I hope Simon feels better soon.

Hope Simon is feeling better. I'm in NE Ohio/NW PA area up by Lake Erie and the flu bug has hit our area tough these last few weeks....yep, the kiddos bring home LOTS of germs from school...gotta love it.

oh ali . . . simon looks as happy as ethan did when i had him at the er a few weeks ago ~ sunday morning at 3AM. then he cried because the doctor couldn't help him. and he started screaming and whincing in pain as soon as we left the hospital. it went on for weeks . . . seemed like months. hope simon gets better soon.

Icky! I hope everyone in your house is feel better soon! Hang in there, spring is soon to come! I made my first trip to a minute clinic this week...

Glad to hear that Simon is okay.
Blessings!

thanks for sharing the links. i'm off to check them out.
have a great weekend at ckc.
hope simon is doing better.

Hope you are all back on the road to health!
Ali, in this post you gave some good links to doing good. I don't know if in your surfing you get to Aussie / Kiwi blogs too much, but I would really love to bring this post from Nic Howard's blog to your attention. This post also links directly to the original request for scrapping help, so you can get a flavour of what 2 countries are doing to help a bunch of kids. If you think it's worthwhile, maybe you would consider adding it to your "Blogs of Goddness". cheers :)

Ali,
I just wanted to let you know that I am a newbie scrapbooker. I just love all the information you give of yourself. I hope everyone in your home is getting better. I just love your love and your books I got them all. I have learned a great deal from you. You are my favorite artist. I was wondering who is your favorite scrapbook artist? I also like Tricia Morris from club scrap but I don't know if she has a blog. I am still a newbie. Once again that you for sharing.

Hi Ali,
I enjoy looking at your blog and being inspired by all your great creativity...definitely a gift. But, I have to ask as I notice all the time and may I say this is my first comment on your blog...Do you read all your comments?!
I've e-mailed you before about a friend of mine "Mike Colon"....
Just curious.
