Well, today it hit me. That pesky bug that has been tormenting my children for the last four days. I'm pretty sure it's the flu because my whole body aches and I've got a fever. This is not very fun. I always have so much more compassion for the children whenever I catch the bug that they had first.
Marty is pretty much invincible and only gets sick once for every 10 times that I do. I think he's been sick twice in the three years we've been married.
If I had to get sick, it was a nice perk that it fell on a Sunday so that Marty could be around all day. He pretty much took care of the kids and I just curled up in a ball and whined. I'm such a pansy. Other than being sick, nothing much happened today. None of us went to church today so that Marty could hold down the fort with me being out of commission.
I'm really hoping that I'll be feeling better tomorrow because he has a busy day and won't be home much to help me with the kids. Carolyn and Peter are both still sick, but I think they are both over the worst of it. Peter had much more energy today and ate and drank better than he has been. Carolyn barely slept at all last night, so I didn't get much sleep. I'm praying that tonight will be a catch up night for her and she'll sleep like a rock. We can only hope.
Well that's all folks. I want to go lay down again.Labels: Motherhood
