Bathside vigil just like when she was tiny, except now the curtain is closed and I'm telling her from the other side that she can do a 10 minute lukewarm bath because she is so very brave. 🥺💔 She's not able to take anything right now and her fever is at 103.5°, so lukewarm bath it is. Poor kiddo.

How about one from yesterday when my babies and I were heading home?! (Not pictured is the toddler, who was watching us from his stroller)
You'd never know my oldest was as sick as she is - that sweet cheerful smile. 🥲

My family growing up always did rounds, both as a way to be happy for others getting nice things, but also as a way to stretch out the present time because we didn't have a lot.
It feels good doing that with my kids, even being able to provide a bit more. It's good to be excited for others! ❤️

Oh I loathe it for the reasons you listed and more. I understand the practical applications & etc I don't like AI or what it's doing to our resources (to include our own brains!).

Oh I don't like Muppet Christmas Carol (though I LOVE the Muppets!!!!)! I saw it as a kid in theaters and it scared the living daylights out of me. Still don't love shadowy faceless figures as an adult.

Don’t tell me I shouldn’t care what other people think because that simply does not apply here, sorry.
