So I have been missing in action the last few weeks thanks to the spicy cough! It hit all 6 of us so that was a bit rough, especially when you can't get anything done. One day it was nearly impossible for me to wipe down my bench! How sad is that!
But it made me stop and rest! In that moment you know what is important and what isn't. Everything else fades away and you gain this clarity, a vision of survival if you will. You must survive as a family and that is all that matters, sleep, water, medication, some sort of nutrition and repeat. As much as I don't want any of us sick it was actually lovely laying down so much with the kids, snuggles, day sleeps (several) together. Just focusing on each other and what really matters.
Sometimes it takes something like this to show you what you have, to be grateful for it and enjoy the hard moments for the little bits of light that are shining through to help you heal.
Remember to look after you and your family, put you first, to sleep, rest, heal, recover and replenish.
Stay safe <3
