Hitting Isn't Nice Kinsey

even when its tempting. 
Let me be truthful with you. I have a saying "Physical Violence is the Answer". . .now I came up with that as a sarcastic reaction to how I feel when I am frustrated, or angry or hurt. It feels as if I cannot communicate how I feel with words- I want to hit.
I see that maybe you might feel the same way. You hit me when you don't get your way- and it hurts.
Right now, you don't know words, so that makes sense. I sure hope that you can learn from Dad's correct responses (in thinking before acting), and from my mistakes of throwing and hitting inanimate things.
I remember watching my dad respond the same way I do- it was scary.
I don't know how to teach you about reigning your emotions in so they don't control you- I'm still working on it, and its a slow process.
I'm praying for you Kinsey.

Your Momma,
Heather Jo

Gastroenteritis...

is inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract, involving the stomach, intestines, or both; usually resulting in diarrhea, abdominal cramps, nausea and possibly vomiting.

Well that's just what happened. Sunday, January 16th at approximately 9pm it started. Both Dad and I were awfully sick, and then you woke up sweetie, covered in vomit. It was not a pretty sight, or smell. And I felt so sorry for you. I had really hoped that you weren't going to be sick.  But alas, you did. You were a trooper, that's for sure. I was so proud, you got over it pretty quickly and went right back to sleep. You were even in a good mood when you got up the next morning. Good job~I wish Dad and I had been. Here it is Wednesday already, and I'm still not feeling right. It may take a few more days, to feel up to speed. When things like this happen it makes me slow down for at least a moment and relish my relative health. The fact that I've never had to deal with anything too bad, and that we live in a place with medicine and clean living conditions. I am so grateful for everything that God has blessed me with- you, dad, our home, our jobs, our family and friends, and most of all His Son and His love. We love you Kinsey. Hang in there!

Love your momma,
