Illness

I know many of you were in prayer for me and the girls the last few days. We really appreciated them. Both Samantha and I woke up late Monday night with a stomach bug. Poor baby girl puked in her bed and was traumatized. Thankfully, she got better quickly. By Tuesday afternoon, I was fading, and fast. It got to the point where I knew I couldn't carry Molly upstairs to bed. I called in reinforcements. (Thanks for the help Herriages!) Things really went down hill that night and by Wednesday morning, I was bad. So calling in more help! Dawn was such a blessing to our family. She came, with groceries, took care of the girls and made soup. I really believe that I would be dead on the floor right now if she didn't come. I am not a drama queen about this stuff. Any mom knows, there is no time to be sick. So I knew it was bad when I had to call help.

Anyway, I am so much better today. I actually have been hungry, which is a big improvement. Still taking it easy, but so much better. Samantha has been fine since Tuesday night, and Molly never got the bug. But she does have a wheezy cough that I am starting to be concerned about. Anyway, thanks again for the prayers.

I didn't realize you'd been that sick. Sorry to hear it! Glad you're strength is returning and that you were able to get help with the girls when you needed it. Hope Molly's ok!
