Amy has been sleeping most of the day. She's been rejecting food, though I found some Fuji apples that were so good that we got her to eat 3 or 4 slices anyway. We take turns sitting with Amy. I'm typing this with her curled up by my side. I read her a few emails that made me cry and after 2 or 3 she had to sleep some more, so I stopped reading them to her. Thanks for all of your words of encouragement. Sorry if I don't reply to all of your emails.
Since Mia was at camp on her birthday, we are celebrating today by having friends over and eating icecream and angelfood cake with green frosting (family tradition). A couple of weeks ago, Mia wanted to have a sleepover, but wisely decided that sleep-deprivation and emotional events could be an unpleasant mix and changed it to an afternoon event.
