Half-way

Today marks the half-way spot. Imust admit the mama is getting a little weary. It could be the drama lately. Early this morning before the rest of the house was up, I started getting Ryan and Grace dressed in our room. Ryan was sitting on the edge of the bed watching TV and trying to get his shirt on. I was packing the suitcases when I heard the loudest bang I have ever heard. When I turned around Ryan was crying. He was also bleeding. He had fallen while his arms were inside his shirt so, his face stopped the fall. Hi lip began to swell and his nose began to bleed. I rushed to put clothes on and run downstairs for ice. Now the whole house was awake! Ryan is fine now, just a little bruise on his nose. It was very stressful for the mama, I hate emergencies! I just don't think I know how to react. My mom asshured me I did a great job. It is really amazing to think this little person is looking to me for assurance and help to fix the boo boo or problem and inside I am screaming," help, Jesus!". Thankfully, I have Jesus to run to.

So we packed our bags after a great home cooked breakfast and headed to Annapolis, Marylands capitol. It was and easy 2 hour drive, with a stoip at my favorite drive thru, Sonic.

We had lunch in Annapolis and walked around a bit. What a beuatiful city. Lots of old historical buildings.
Then we headed to Gaithersburg, where I used to live a long time ago. My step-father arrives today from Fl. I must say our hotel room is quite cozy with five us.
