A message from Nadia

Hello everyone!

I thought I'd give you all an update on what's happening in my house. My mommy brought me this t-shirt and insisted on taking pictures. She kept mumbling something about me definitely being my father's child because I kept giving her a hard time. I kept trying to tell her that pictures are not my thing and that I just wanted to play...she still wouldn't listen to me. *sigh*

Anyhoo, for some reason I feel like my life as I know it is about to be forever changed. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing (hence my expression in the picture). Even though my mommy seems extremely tired all the time, I can tell she's happy. My daddy's happy as well but he says that younger siblings can sometimes be a pain because they always follow you around and take all your toys. I just look at him because I have no idea what a "sibling" is and plus, I like to share my toys with my dogs. Hmmm...I wonder if siblings are like dogs.

Well, either way something big is supposed to happen on or around July 15th, 2009. Please pray for my mommy and daddy and this "sibling" thing and I will be sure to keep you all updated.

Love
Nadia

I'm being attacked...

And I have no clue where it is coming from. I have these red spots all over my legs, feet, thighs, arms, nose, and eyebrows. I think I have an idea of why my face and feet are breaking out but I'm not sure about the rest of my body. I first noticed it about 3 weeks ago and didn't think nothing of it because it wasn't bothering me and it was just tiny bumps. Since then, they've gone from tiny red bumps to thin, dark red bruises. I thought I had chicken pox, then I thought maybe we had bed bugs. Once Corey told me that he didn't have any marks I ruled out the bed bugs and I had the chicken pox when I was in elementary school so that was a no go. They don't itch or anything, it's just gross to look at. I would post pictures but I think it's disgusting looking. I get embarressed going out because I feel I look like I have some type of disease. I don't wear any make-up, so it's not like I could cover it up or anything.
I have an appointment on Tuesday and I'm hoping the doctor can give me something to clear up whatever it is I have. I'm also hoping that it's nothing serious. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Christmas cards

When doing your holiday cards this year, send one to this address. If we pass
this on and everyone sends one card, think of how many cards these wonderful
special people who have sacrificed so much would get.
