silver linings

hi everyone.

not much to post here.  feeling a bit quiet these days. 

we are all down and out with germs that have been taking residence an entire month now in our home. i had escaped this sinus infection for weeks now but it has officially caught up with me too and my head feels like a brick.  we are making what feels like our 16th trip to our doctor this afternoon.  to say this is wearing thin on us all would be a huge understatement.  it continues to rain and be cold  march is leaving like a lion and not a lamb, and i am feeling a bit moldy.  :) 

we ALL need spring and some sun and warmer air and open windows and blooms and leaves and grass and outdoor play  and a chance to air out these germs.  (that is not too much to ask now is it?  sure sounds like a lot)  

kellen needs to NOT cough, just for 1 day,  that would be a great day.  and a full night of restful sleep for him would be such a gift as well.   he needs to be well enough to go to school again and see his friends.   we are waiting.  having ill little ones (and not so little ones),  2 surgeries, and a lingering winter have done taken its collective toll on spirits around here, theirs and mine.

i am still striving to stay positive each day.

searching out those silver linings to our clouds. 

with that said, i am blessed to be a sahm.  i have the freedom and flexibility for these sick days.  i do not need to juggle or stress about a job and my children.  so many are not that lucky.  i need to remember this. the weather forecasters are predicting we will see the sun in a few days, we are ready!  bring. it. on. 

casey is turning four on thursday.  our baby will be FOUR! (wow)   some sunshine would be a great gift for her special day.

i will see you when we are a bit sunnier.  

hopefully that is soon.
