Well, another week has flown by. It's hard to believe that it is September, and nearly halfway through it. I can't say that I am really ready for fall and winter, but I am ready for some cooler weather, where I don't feel like I have to strip my child down before I let him play outside. Nothing big or exciting happened this weekend, which I am very thankful for. We had a peaceful night in on Friday night, and spent the weekend together as our happy little family. The only thing that I wish I could redo is having to take T to the dr Saturday night. We went to PM Pediatrics, which is where a friend of ours works. We arrived at 7:45pm, and get this: did not see the doctor until after 10pm! I can't tell you how many times we almost got up and left. It was ridiculous. When we got there, there were 7 families/kids in front of us. And it took 3 hours before we were called back. The only reason we stayed is because we were afraid it was his ears, and after putting tubes in not even a month ago...I was bound and determined to find out why my child had a fever of 103! Come to find out, he tested positive for strep. But, the doctor informed us that it didn't look like it had been going on too long (but the fact that he was eating, drinking, and playing like normal had already told me that!). So, after stopping and getting his prescription filled, we made it home a little after 11:30pm...
At least the Vols won! :) 
Sunday was a much needed lazy day. We took our time, remembered where we were when the towers were hit and when we found out. It is hard to believe that it's been 10 years. But I can say this- I am glad to live in a nation where neighbors can turn to one another and speak about what the remember on that tragic day. I am proud to live in a nation where we, as Americans, turned a threat into unity. I am proud to call the United States of America my home.
