while we are sick

During the day you wouldn't be able to tell the kids were sick.  They have been resuming activity as normal.  I have been letting them swim during these oh so hot days.  It seems we paid dearly last evening for it.  I basically didn't sleep for having to get up with children coughing, screaming, and throwing up.  In the middle of the night at one point I thought someone was breaking in, the noise was so loud.  I get up to find my oldest gasping for breath.  That's was pretty scary!  You worry about the little's struggling, but you think the bigs, "they've got this".  This illness has been a learning experience.  One minute they are fine, the next, not so much.

 

So today we are taking it easy.  No "normal" activity.  Just rest.  Reading, playing games, building, coloring, drawing, hanging out. 

 

 

Little Miss found a hurt chick in the chick tractor, so she wanted to bring it in and see if she could get it back to health.  She has such a kind heart towards animals.

Blessings,
Joyful Mother
