My house has been sick for a solid 2 weeks. I was the first to get sick, then Micah, my 2 year old. Neither Micah or I are totally well yet. Both my husband and my 3 year old, Connor got sick at the same time. My baby girl, Noelle is showing some symptoms now. Micah and I had mostly sinus problems but also a scratchy throat, body aches, and fatigue. My husband and Connor have a cough really bad plus some sinus problems, body aches, and fatigue. I'm thinking it's the flu going around.
A mother's job is never done when children are sick. No matter how much my husband wants to help, all the children cry out for Mommy when they don't feel well. I can't ignore my kids crying out for mommy. It's so dear and precious to me. I take my job as a mom seriously. I cuddle, take temperatures, dispense medicine, fill humidifiers, more cuddling, clean noses, and endure watching Curious George all day long because the kids don't have energy to play. I trudge on loaded on medicines and little to no sleep. Thank goodness for coffee. I managed to escape for a bit tonight to go shopping. It helped relax me and clear my head so I could come back and be a better mommy to my kids. Sometimes us parents need a short break to make us even more appreciative, especially when things are stressful.
I wish I had more intelligent and meaningful things to write about today but my brain is tired :) I have more reviews and giveaways lined up soon. I am so excited about what is in store for my blog. It really is true that when your Alexa rating gets lower, that many more opportunities open up. Plus, I truly am dedicated to this blog and all my readers. My blog is an outlet for me. A wonderful, beautiful outlet. Thanks to all of you that read and interact with me on my blog. I love you all!
Here is a pitiful sick picture of Micah.

You poor darling. I always hated it when I had a household that was sick. I was always the last to get sick, and it lasted the longest with me. Hope everyone gets well soon.

Hope you're all feeling better soon!
Aww, Micah looks cute anyway, poor thing! And poor you, I know the feeling of total exhaustion!
I hope you all feel better soon and you get some rest!
I think mommy's have the hardest & most wonderful job in the world! I hope everyone is feeling better soon! Thanks for stopping by my blog. :)
