First of all- I made it here all on my own.  I have a problem with sleep deprivation and it causes me to fall asleep while in a car.  EVEN if I’m driving.<\/p>\n

I haven’t  driven for more than a half an hour without having real problems staying awake for about 10 years now.  But I am pushing the limits and forcing myself to go further and further and on the way back from Chincoteague, I managed to drive almost 3 1\/2 hours.  Of course, Cynthia was sitting next to me and helping me to stay awake.  <\/p>\n

I came to Columbus by myself.<\/p>\n

I sang and prayed and  ate pretzels and drank coffee!<\/p>\n

So, I’m praising the Lord for this victory!<\/p>\n

Luke is in Chicago until Wednesday, so I get to be dinner and nightime caregiver, while Willow is teaching ESL  classes.<\/p>\n

Aidan has a cold, cough, runny nose and a slight fever.  He is not feeling well at all.  And yet he is such a trooper.  I went with them to the doctor and he was so cooperative- breathing deeply and holding real still for the examination.<\/p>\n

He is really talking!  Counting and naming items, people and toys.  <\/p>\n

He has a hard time saying Gramma- so I had him call me Heidi.<\/p>\n

EVERYONE calls me Heidi (except my boys who call me Mom.)<\/p>\n

I’ve never been the Aunt-type or the Mrs. Fodor type-  and Heidi is real easy for little ones to say.<\/p>\n

Anyway, as I said he is pretty miserable.  And he isn’t eating very well- food just doesn’t really appeal to him.  Except for apples, cheese, sweet potatoes, and bread.<\/p>\n

AND- these healthy peanut butter balls his mother makes him.<\/p>\n

\"Halloween<\/a> <\/p>\n

So that was supper.  Here are a few shots of him devouring these balls- which by the way- he asks for by name.  Pea-buttah-baws!<\/p>\n

\"Halloween<\/a> \"Halloween<\/a> <\/p>\n

Here’s the recipe.<\/p>\n
