were we gone? Maybe not physically, but I for one was definitely not with it. What have I learned from this mental hiatus? That denying that you are sick when you are just too busy to be, does not actually deminish the sickness. It either a) gives you the strength to just push through it or B) makes you even sicker. This particular time the latter applied to me. Doing some last minute Easter outfit shopping yesterday, I realized that walking through the mall was just about killing me. John turned around and said "here, let me help you keep up" and he gently "nudged" me forward (thanks for that honey). We came home, I admitted defeat and took it easy. Low and behold, this morning I am healed!!
So what were we so busy with? Well, the kids haven't been feeling well..... mostly Nathan. The poor little guys tubes became plugged and infected. Our awesome specialist got him right into surgery Thursday morning and fixed them. And now except for a couple scratchy throats, everyone is back on their feet. John also joined the National Guard Reserves. He was very pleased with himself for keeping up with the twenty year olds and he should be! So the next time you see him know that he is back to being a man in uniform :)
