Sick Days
So, one of my children is home sick from school today. The weather has turned incredibly cold outside and so I must admit that I was happy to keep her home. We have stayed in our pajamas and cuddled in mommy's bed. We have watched movies and sipped hot lemon to ease sore throats. I realized part way through the morning that there is a positive side to having a sick child. It forces me to slow down and while everyone else is out of the house my little girl and I have had an opportunity to bond together. I also realized that some of my most positive memories from my own childhood are times that my mother was caring for me while I was sick.
