HALL PASS! Without restrictions

I feel like I just got a High School hall pass or a Monopoly 'get out of jail free' card. Except the jail isn't my home, it's life without the job of motivating and encouraging. Having to be somewhere. Being surrounded by healthy, happy, enthusiastic, fun friends that like to sweat.
The note that the doctor wrote says, 'Can return to work without restrictions'.
So I am back to the gym. Teaching aerobics. Doing what I love. What I miss. Seeing all my buddies. Thrilled to return.
It's a great break from the busyness of the three little ones. Especially when one of them is sick. When I took Evelyn's temperature this morning, it was 102.6. And that was 2 hours after having Tylenol. She is miserable, but VERY sweet.

Babies hiccups eventually go away

.

Hot shower

Cantelope that tastes as good as spring feels

A quick dinner date later (Hopefully. If little one is better.)

A friend that encourages

A bouncy seat that vibrates

Text messages that make you smile

That it only took 45 minutes at the doctor
