Gifts

Everyday gifts are supposed to be something that you don't feel bad about getting, or feel like you have to get the person a gift back. The other day someone gave me a bunch of baked goods from a bake sale. It was very nice of the person to do this. She also picks up little gifts for the kids every now and then. This is very nice of her. I know her financial situation though, and she really shouldn't be spending any money on me or the kids. Now I feel like I should give something back to her, but I don't want to buy something just to buy something. I have another friend who used to get me expensive gift cards and gifts for driving her daughter to school or watching her dogs. Then when I have her help me with something, I feel like I have to get something expensive back. ANyway, enough of my complaining about people doing nice things for me.
Things have been going well here. I am about 3-4 weeks away from my due date. Lizzie just finished preschool., She had her graduation on Wed. Buddy has two weeks of school left. I took him to the doctor last week because he had a cough for 3weeks and then came home early from school, becouse he was super tired and his neck hurt. It turns out he had/has strep and mono. I guess with mono, your spleen can be enlarged, so he can't do any contact sports for 2 weeks(when he has a recheck). So he has not been able to do P.E. at school,or recess. Now recess is not necessarily a contack sport, but the chances of him being hit in the stomach are high. Hopefully he will get the okay to participate in recess and Field Day, for his last week of school.
that is all for now. I have been so bad about posting, I don't know if anyone checks this or not.
