Bone marrow donor, recipient meet for first time Madi woke up at 8:10 am this morning. I made her a bowl of Pops and cut up an apple because she said her tooth was loose. I told her she was getting her big girl teeth, that's why it was loose like that. I made myself a world class omelete and we watched "How To Train Your Dragon". After breakfast we went clothes shopping for Madi at Old Navy

Winter storm targets Houston Computer models suggest the precipitation will arrive earlier on Thursday than expected.   I called Stephanie this morning at 9:15 to ask her if she received my text I sent her last night at 6:45 pm.
