smallness

lately, it seems that all i ever blog about is how sick we all are here in the casa de sol. didn't we move into a healthy house? one that relies on solar heating and lacks carpets full of dust mites and pet dander? can i blame the mice for making us sick? what is going on here?

poor baby e threw up yesterday and today. her diapers have leaked liquid poop twice today. my poor precious baby love. she's eaten merely a banana today. even mama's milk comes back up half the time. if you know me and have been with us since her birth, you know how i struggle with her low weight. like her dad, she just doesn't have an ounce to spare on her lean frame. i try not to worry, but it's hard as a mom to realize there is nothing more i can do to help her eat right now. i am really glad to trust something bigger than myself but even that doesn't make it easy right now. in retrospect, perhaps i can point to trust in god as getting me through but during the time with a small, fragile one it is tough! having spent years dealing with my own weight and eating issues makes it awkward...isn't she too young for me to worry about her low weight? will i just always worry about it? ugh.
