As I sit here with tissue stuffed in my nose, I think about the past week. What a week...I should be sitting on the beach right now. Well that was the original plan. God had a different plan.
I was deeply saddened to learn a very dear coworker went on a trip of a lifetime. She is now with her Maker and is worry free. She will be truly missed.
Friday, Slade started to complain of a headache, then around midnight started vomitting. I knew....Strep always starts out like this with him. We were planning on leaving Saturday to go to Destin. I attended the funeral Saturday while Brad took Slade to the Doc. I hate not being able to go to doctor appointments because I want to know exactly what happens, but I gave Brad very detailed instructions, including to ask for a shot of antibiotics instead of oral meds that you have to take 2 times a day for 10 days. Makes sense, huh? Well not to a 4 yr old. Of course it was my fault. He was so pitiful when he came home. He looks at me and asks "Why did you let them hurt me? I did not want them to give me a shot." Talk about breaking my heart!!
Now Brad and I are both sick. Sore throats, headache, and snotty. BLAH! We are all trying to find the energy to keep up with the king of the house, Kase. Who has not only started crawling in the past 2 weeks, but has mastered the skill. I had forgotten how much stuff they can get into when they move!!
Our beach trip has been cancelled :( but that's fine. There is a reason for everything. We are thinking about leaving today and going to St.Louis for a few days. Just to get out of this germ-filled house! We'll see. I have no energy to pack or clean or get 2 kids and ALL the stuff that goes along with them together.
On another note....Kase had his very first ice cream sandwich. He loved it as you can tell!!
Here's to a better week.
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows.
II Corinthians 1:3-5
