A few days ago, Jonah and Vanessa got a pretty bad stomach flu. Because we share everything, they were nice enough to give it to me. I've been out of commission all day today and wasn't able to get to anything on my to do list. This, of course, stresses me out as I feel like I've got too much to do even without losing a day. Fortunately, there is a silver lining. Because I was basically a bump on a log all day, Vanessa was solely in charge of Jonah. This gave me a rare opportunity to watch Jonah and Vanessa interact with each other (without me butting in as I normally do when I'm around). It was awesome. They are really funny together and it is quite apparent that Jonah loves his mama. He follows her around when she goes from room to room and he'll "ask" for her when she leaves. Vanessa certainly isn't afraid to be silly with Jonah, and he just loves that. Jonah can often take quite a bit to be entertained and Vanessa fits that role very well.
Vanessa's 30th birthday is tomorrow! While I'm sure her life isn't exactly how she thought it would be (Iowa?), she has certainly made the most of it and is doing a great job of being a mom and wife. In short, I'm so proud of her with how she cares for Jonah and looks after me. Thanks babe, and Happy Birthday.
