Last week I was plum worn out. Sometimes that happens when work just catches up to me and my reserves are depleted. I tried to get to bed early and cut out all exercise for a few days to give myself a bit of recovery. And then we had an invitation to dip in the pool next door which was the perfect cap to our low-key weekend.
Here we are, heading back home. Jasmine is multi-tasking, walking the dog, eating a cracker, carrying her book and prancing along. Typical.We are preparing for palate surgery on September 1 and it's important that none of us are sick or worn out. Jasmine cannot be sick or her surgery will be cancelled. We've been trying to stay close to home and with me a little under the weather, I'm aware that I could be the weak link in our family right now. I'm doing my best to bolster my immune system and make sure Jasmine gets to bed on time, takes long naps, eats a lot and stays healthy. Her days with Shane are the key, as he keeps her on a great schedule and she sleeps for hours during her days with him. He has an innate ability to tune into Jasmine, knowing when she's tired, how much sleep she should get and interpreting her sophisticated and often made-up sign language. I don't know what we would do without him.

Hope that you feel better quickly - think of it as marbles in a bag - you can give away as many as you want - so long as you save enough for yourself!! Great to hear that Shane has such a connection to Jas too - use that as often as you need to get back on your feet! We'll keep you guys in our prayers for next week!
hugs - aus and co.
Hope you feel better!! I will be thinking about you all in the coming days!!!
