When Mommy Gets Sick

The world stops in a dead halt. The last few days I have felt as if I'm coming down with a cold or some icky flu/ish thing and today it hit. I feel like road kill. Thankfully I have a husband who can cook so the children will get fed. Otherwise they might all starve. My recliner and I have grown very close these last couple hours. I have my pillow, my blankie, phone, tv remote and a thermos of hot tea. My wonderful husband dropped my 2 littlest kids at his parents for the day so I have been in and out of consciousness all day. He even made my school age kid lunch this morning. He's so wonderful. I plan on milking this just so everyone knows. I feel as if we moms deserve to milk a little and I don't mean lactating ladies ha ha..ok That wasn't really that funny but in my delirium it is ok. Let me have that one. As I was saying. I figure after years of taking care of kids, husbands, nurturing, wiping runny noses and runny butts for that matter we moms deserve to milk a little. So I intend to milk and maybe even whine a little.
