John Michael is definitely going to be home for the week, which is sad because tomorrow was his firs field trip, that breaks my heart, but we want him to be better. Maybe we will be able to take him this weekend to the Pumpkin Patch and at least get some pictures and a Pumpkin.
Danny was at school for a whole day today. He said he had a great day. Because it is Thursday it meant Thursday papers, and he did very good. I am so proud of him. We are in the 2nd week of the 2nd quarter and he seems to be doing very well. Hopefully he keeps it up.
John Michael finished up all of the work that his teacher sent home for him that he was missing this week. He also has done all of him homework. YAY! At least we will not go back behind. A definite plus!
I worked in the office again and almost have two desks completely cleaned off. I have under them cleaned out.
I also have the seven large tubs of scrapbooking stuff sorted and ready to go in a scrapbook. I have no idea when I will have time to do anything with them, but at least I am getting there with having them ready to go, which can take be the longest part.
I have had several frames that I have bought over the years for Christmas gifts, and I have finally gotten them all together and figured out how many pictures I need to print so that I can get them given out this year for Christmas. I also have several I was given as gifts that needed pictures so that they could get hung and that has also been done. Now to figure out which pictures to use.
Well, I have a lot to edit and DirecTV is supposed to be here tomorrow so we are trying to clean off our DVR. Not sure if sleep will happen tonight or not.

Check
Today was the School Mass, and so that I did not miss it, John Michael got to go to work with Brandon for an hour. He was so excited. He is still not 100% though so we are going to go on and assume it will be Monday. Hopefully I can get a new doctor's excuse from the ENT. She said that I could with no problems, and since I have called about his fever they should know that he is home still. While he was okay this morning, it came back up this afternoon. It does not stay up long, but when it is he is pitiful. When it is not he is almost 100%. It breaks my heart to see my boys not feeling up to par.
Mass was so nice. Bishop Foley actually was there which was nice. I have not seen him since he retired. It was a great Homily too. I love the choir at the school Mass. There is just something about Children's Voices. Today Here I Am Lord was one of the songs, and it is one of my favorites. I love starting my day at Mass with my boys. While I know that St. Francis is the best choice for my children, it is reaffirmed at every Mass.
John Michael and I ran some errands which included getting my oil changed. I am so bad about that. I will get better one of these days. I knew that I had to do it before November though with everything coming up and all the miles I am about to log it was not an option. Of course they recommend tires. I am hoping and praying that I can make it until at least tax time. Brandon says yes, and I trust his call. Of course we will be watching them to make sure.
Well, it was a progressive day in the office. I swear I never knew how many pictures I had just randomly laying around. I know now. Well, not the number but the amount. My office could have been on hoarders. Seriously. Now I am making progress I can see, where as last time I worked on it I could not tell I had done anything even though I knew that I had. Getting there, my goal is to have it ready for Brandon's equipment by next weekend. We will see.
Well, I am off to bed. I am pooped and ready to check the back of my eyelids for holes (to quote my daddy). Know that prayers are headed up for you all.

Report Cards
It looks like John Michael will be out again tomorrow. He spiked a fever about lunch time. We will see what tomorrow brings.
Danny was excited again because he was able to get out at 1:00. He had to come with us to the report card conferences. All parents have one for the first report card, which I think is great. It is interaction with the teacher's and helps build a relationship. Some people complain, but I love it. I like to be involved in what they are doing with school and this definitely is a small thing, but it means a lot in the grand scheme of it all. At least to me it does.
Danny did great, I was so proud of him. He has worked really hard, and he knows that it is going to keep coming and he is ready. He loves to learn and loves to be challenged. While some days he is not the happiest about the work, he knows that the benefits will be great!
We also met with John Michael's teacher. He is doing very well too and is also working hard. He misses school and is so ready to go back. He loves it and his teacher said that it showed in his work and participation. Now if we can get him to get our phone numbers down and tying his shoes down we will be good to go. Any advice on shoe tying would be awesome!
Well, I am off to bed. Prayers for you all going up shortly!

Miracles Happen..
So today started off as a good day. John Michael is still recovering and it is looking like Wednesday before he goes back. Time will tell though.
Danny got out at 1:00 because of report card conferences. Ours is tomorrow. He had a great day and loved the fact that it was so short. I remember looking forward to early days too, I think it is great, and I enjoy longer days with the boys!
On my way to get Danny I was contacted by a client to tell me his wife had been admitted to have their first child. They had asked me to be there with them to get the pictures that they would not be able too. It took some calls, but Aunt B came to the house to sit with the boys and I high tailed it to the hospital. Especially considering she went from 3-7 cm in no time. She ended up having a C-Section and guess what photographer was in the Operating Room. It was such an amazing moment. A true miracle. To read more about it watch the blog at MonicaAnne Photography. The baby, the momma, and the daddy are doing great though!
Well, to say I am tired is an understatement! Night and prayers to you all!

Scheduling and Resting
Well, John Michael was definitely not feeling great today, he even took a two hour nap, which translates to the fact that he is still awake and it is almost midnight. He says that his nose, throat and tummy hurt. Poor baby is breaking my heart.
His Aunt B made his day when she stopped by and brought him a surprise. Spongebob card games were definitely a hit as he and Danny had a blast playing with them. Thank you Aunt B for making your little rock star's recovery a little brighter!
Well, my photography schedule for 2011 is booked. I am seriously slammed to the point I do not know when or how I will be able to do my boy's pictures. I was stressed but I decided to say a prayer and ask for peace and guidance. His hands are bigger than mine and now I see it for the blessing that it is. I love the fact that business is booming.
I got some laundry done today, not quite as much as I wanted, but progress is what matters. We have been taking it easy all weekend...probably too easy. It had to be done for little man though, we are usually none stop and that was not possible this weekend. John Michael getting better was the priority.
It allowed us to work towards cleaning off the DVR which is a good thing considering that we are getting a new one on Friday. Brandon is pumped because it is high definition which will look amazing on the new television I am sure. He has been impatiently waiting for a month now for this appointment.
Well, I am hoping that John Michael goes to sleep soon so that I can. Know that you are all in my thoughts and in my prayers.
