You are my Shawnshine.















Shawn has Strep throat:( He really doesn't feel well and has had a fever since Friday night that finally went down tonight (Monday).
I don't like having sick kids. I feel so sorry for him. He is really miserable. However, I cherish the moments when he wants his Mommy. Those moments are becoming less and less common. I love my baby boy!! He has grown up so much. I love watching him try new things and find new hobbies or interests. I particularly love to see him devour books. His favorite thing to do with me is to scare me. He is really good at it. It helps that I am almost as easily startled as my mother. One of those things I do and think, "ARGH! I am so much like my mother!!" We loved scaring her while we were growing up and my oldest brother, Steve was the best at it. I guess we're just keeping up with tradition, Shawn and I.
Get well, my Shawnshine. I love you so much!!






Ryan or Shawn?


Shawn, of course! But Ryan would insist it is him.

When I first looked at the picture I thought - wow, Jen cut her hair - didn't realize it was long time ago. :) Hope Shawn feels better!!!!

So sorry to hear Shawn is sick! I hate it when Annie's sick. I hope he feels better soon and no one else gets sick!!

At least Ryan knows what he's going to look like when he gets a little older! Your kids are wonderful. I love having Ryan in my class.
