Hi everyone! Thanks for your advice...I have been taking time to talk to Tilly and try to explain certain things before they become a problem! That seems to help a lot. And now that Laila is more adjusted to the household here I don't have to be with her every second! Each day gets better with Tilly! The girls are playing really well together...and when they fight they sound just like sister! What more could I ask for? I tried to explain to Tilly what it is like to be a sister...and that little sisters want to be just like their big sisters! Not what she wanted to hear! I am realizing I probably owe all of you an appology for being the 'little sister'! Laila wants everything just like Tilly. Yesterday we went shopping for shoes, bedding, and Christmas dresses! What a LOOOONG day that was! How do you do it Kassie? The thought of multiplying yesterday by 3 makes me disfunctional! Buying their dresses Tilly would say, " I want the white dress"...Laila whould immediately say "I want the white dress like my 'sisser'! "Then I want the RED dress"..." I want the RED dress like my 'sisser'!" Tilly was so mad by now..."FINE!! I want the PINK dress" ..." I want the PINK dress like MY 'SISSER'!!!" Mindy and I were laghing by this point because we had just spent an hour picking out one pair of shoes and it played out the same way! We love our 'sissers'!!! Thanks for putting up with me over the years! Ben is trying to come up today after work ...if that doesn't work he will be here tomorrow after work! I have to take Laila for a visit with her Aunt Jessica (the mom's sister) tomorrow at 10..I am a little nervous for that so I really hope Ben is here tonight! I had a big fight with Aunt Jackie! She is having a hard time dealing with her own emotions and likes to take it out on me...I wasn't about to take any crap from her so it wasn't pretty! However, Laila has never gone back to Jackie since the baptism...because she didn't want to! So I have had her since saturday and we are going home on Monday! Jackie is impossible to please and she is not my concern so the fight has become a blessing in disguise!

Stacy, good luck with the meds! Two of Mindy's kids have started taking the same meds and it has helped them! It kills their appetite however so maybe watch for that! I can't wait to see the new floors when we come through!

Karla, we miss ya and can't wait to come home to the country! Going through all of this makes me appreciate all of you so much...just thinking about how much I love you makes me cry!

Kassie, you amaze me! I can't even comprehend what you get done in a day and still have your sanity for the next day! I am so worn out and its only been a week! I am a whimp!! I guess that's nothing we didn't all know!

And Mom, thank you so much for always being there for me! I love you so much and coundn't do this without your support!

I am going to go take a shower now and get my cry over with for the day! I love you all! Talk to you soon, Wendy
