Here is a picture of what my child woke up with, covering nearly every inch of her sweet, smooth kid skin:
Poor girl. She is not itchy, and seems completely and totally unbothered and unaffected. She had roseola as a baby - because thats what came immediately mind to me too! No outbreaks of fifth's disease, foot and mouth, or any other rash inducing childhood illness at school. It warranted a call to the ped's office, especially in light of the random fever she showed up with on Friday and Saturday, sans any other symptoms. Viral rash, they say. Just watch her, they say.
Don't you also just love how I, taking a picture with my iphone, was able to completely keep this post nudity free? yeah, and thats her hip and butt cheek. Aislinn, honey, I promised to keep all nude pictures of you OFF the internet, even though you spend most of your time at home without any clothes on.
Can someone just NOT be sick, or afflicted with some unknown disease, for just a WEEK? Is that asking too much?

Some of you may know me as Lindsey, or Falyndeire (my lame-o, old as dust, seldom used AIM account) or even as Fruit and Nuts. I thought I'd finally try my hand at this blogging business myself in order to make myself feel less like a visitor in the blog world that I've become so attached to. My house may go less cleaned, the dishes sit in the sink for a few hours longer than usual, or the litter box less frequently scooped - no one is paying attention but me.
As tempted as I am to launch into a not so brief synopsis of the years past that have made me who and what I am, I am going to step away from that soapbox. We all know that life consists of utter joy, the depths of despair, and all that is in between. All we can hope to do is grow as parents, friends, sisters, spouses and try to focus on the joy more often than we do the pain.
To conclude my first, official blog post, I'll share a few pictures of who makes me happy!
