I feel like I have been barely around the blog world this week. Being sick will do that to you. Doesn't my body know- mom's can't get sick? A day of total fatigue, mucus-spewing coughing, chills, and feeling like I had a wad of cotton stuck in the back of my throat only to discover it was actually my tonsils so enlarged they were touching at times; I went to the doctor.
They didn't test me for strep, as my throat it-self is actually not sore, but are medicating me like I have it.
Sometimes I feel like I could do more and should do more (and yes that at times is true) but after being sick for a few days and hardly being able to do anything I realized how much I really do!
Don't get me wrong, Eric has totally stepped in and helped out but there is only so much he can do in the few hours that he is home.
So anyway-- Happy Valentine's day right?
Obviously no Proud Mommy Moments today as now that I am starting to feel a bit better I need to get things ready for our Fancy Family Valentines Dinner; which has become a yearly tradition.
And two years ago (click here for that post) when it began-- and look at cute Ryder- he dressed up for the occasion

P.S. Did you know this is National Random Acts of Kindness week? If you have or are doing something and blog about it; it would be a perfect post to link up with Heartfelt Acts.
Aw, poor you and you're right, Mom's don't get sick do they?? At least we don't get sick days off. You're quite a trouper. I think I'd be hiding in bed under the covers tossing out conversation hearts that say, "Go to McDonalds!" :) Feel better and Happy Valentine's Day. Oh and last year's table was beautiful and Ryder is aaaaadorable. :)
ReplyDeleteMoms are definitely not supposed to get sick. I hope you're feeling better very soon. I can't wait to see what you have planned for Valentines Day! :)

Just so you know, I totally copied your idea. It was a smashing success... minus the tantrums, but those are sort of a given. Anyway, thanks for reminding me of this great idea. I think we may also make it into a tradition!

ReplyDeleteAww, I hope you're feeling 100% soon. Things do pile up when we can't keep right on top of them.
ReplyDeleteThe table setting you put up looks fabulous. I can't wait to see what you did this year.
