Peace

It had been a rough day.  The kind of day where I just needed to take a shower, wash the day down the drain, kind of day.  We were going to head over to Wednesday night supper and Bible study and I had not showered in days.  So, I headed upstairs while Lydia napped and the others (including Dan) were hanging out downstairs.

Within two minutes I hear a tap tapping on the door.  "Maaaaaama."  Silence.  And again, the same sequence.  I love my Millie girl, but I was craving quiet so desperately!  And so, it went on for the duration of my sacred shower time.

I opened the door, and the top photo is what I saw.  :) "Hi, Momma."  I asked her if she was ok.  She said, "I have a secret to tell you."  And then she climbed up and whispered "you are the best momma ever."  Oh this girl!  :)



Sickies

I am so grateful that we have enjoyed good health so far this fall and winter.  The last few weeks have been rough!  Lydia had RSV for 8 days and now it's the Flu and stomach virus--all under one roof.  Here is a little chart I made to keep up with our Tamiflu dosages.  Graham tested positive for the flu, so he will take two doses per day for five days.  The rest of us take (prophylactic) once per day for ten days.  Poor Millie has the stomach bug, but I am grateful that she is now old enough to (mostly) make it to a receptacle of some kind.   Hoping that we'll be on the mend soon.
