They are easier to detect after the fact. They are uncanny encounters, brushes with the supernatural, where the presence of the Lover accompanies us in a very real way, sheltering, directing, loving, moving, giving life to our everyday existence. You can't totally explain the experience, but you leave shaken to the very depths, knowing that you have been kissed by the Divine.

back to "normal"
I am happy to report that we are fever and drugs free! Ivan's fever broke yesterday and he hasn't had it since. None of the rest of us got it either- yeah, yeah, yeah.
Funnies today:
-I was trying to get Ivan to give a gift to Brian (for the 12 days of father's day. Didn't know it existed? That's 'cause I made it up). Anyways, it was in the gift bag Ivan had received from a friend who brought the sick boy gifts and Motrin. He refused to give it to Daddy and screamed like crazy saying "It's MINE!!!". He continued screaming for what seemed like forever, when I told Brian to just put something in the bag and give it to Ivan. Later I found Ivan craddling a pear. He loved his "gift". Do you think I should gift wrap his green beans for supper?
-Ivan doesn't like eating salad, but we put Catalina dressing on it (looks like ketchup) and told him to try it that it's crunchy like chips. He tried it and I think even swallowed some! Yeah.

It can't hurt--(gift wrap everything).
Glad to hear Ivan is feeling much better without any unnecessary intervention. That's the way to go!
We aren't quite at the gift wrap stage although Gavin wants to have birthdays all the time and we make party hats and we talk wildly about cake and candles!
Keep wrapping if it keeps him happy!
Glad your gaffer is feeling better! Don't you just love the "terrific twos"? Yeah...it was a stage I could have done without! Only mine started at 10 mos (biting) and he's now just barely 5 and is still known to bite! (he bit my face again last week)I think it never ends....but I may be the wrong person to ask! My kid does everything to the extreme, so we're kind of a "special" case!!! :)
