Maxley is 11 moths old today. I can’t believe it. I think I will cry on his birthday. I am ready for this year to be over because it hasn’t been good to me but on the other hand, I am devistated that the first year of his life was spent like this. I will never get that time back.
Today was a wonderful mother’s day. I spent the morning here with just me and Maxley. This afternoon my mom, sisters, brother and law and niece and nephew came up to the hospital to see Maxley and spend time together.
My sister and brother and law new that I would get to take Maxley to the park with them (the park is on the hospital campus) but I wanted to surprise Brooklyn. She turned 6 last weekend and she hasn’t seen Maxley since before his surgery in January.
Later Brooklyn asked me if the doctors knew that I took him out of his room. I laughed out loud. She is so cute!
I posted 2 different times today to my Instagram about Mother’s day and I wanted to share them here to make sure people saw them! One about being a mom…
And then of course one about my mom…
A woman who has been following my story dropped off a very sweet mother’s day gift for me yesterday. It included the onesie Maxley is wearing above. It says, “you’re doing a great job, mommy, Happy Mother’s day, Love Maxley- 2019!”
So thoughtful!! Thank you Louise, that was so kind!!!! I love it!!
To finish off, after my family left, I was taking the elevator back to our floor and this woman sighs and rests her head against the wall. She says something to the guy she is with about maybe they can go home soon. She turns her head and looks at me and says, “we have been here since 11.” I turned back and looked at her and said, “I have been here since January.”
BOOM!!!
I mean maybe it was rude and she wasn’t trying to be either but trying to find sympathy in a hospital is just the wrong place. I truly hope everything is ok with her family but I mean, I feel like that was a one liner Scott would have been proud of!
Goodnight!
