Blah

The last weeks have been hard with Lou working so much and being very busy with school. But the last few days have been very very hard. My poor little Kira got sick and was sick for 6 days, Joshy got sick 2 days ago and I got sick 2 days ago. It is very hard to be sick and take care of sick babies. LUckily both kids are doing better so now I just need to get better. I feel so bad, I am not any fun for Kira who isn't sick anymore and I am doing the absolute minimum of anything I am required to do, which makes me feel bad about myself. I'm kind of proud that the house is clean and the laundry is done but I feel like I've been out of commission the last 2 days. I try reading, it hurts my head, I get tired of watching TV, I tried to work on my Relief Society Lesson for the next time i teach but I couldn't concentrate at all, anything I try to do just hurts my head so the last days have been long, hard and borning. Uggh I hate times like this. The kids are napping which is great but I am already looking forward to their bed time of 7:00. I know I'm not that good of a mom this week. I can't wait till Lou gets home, even though it won't be until almost 9, then it will finally be the weekend. This has been the longest 4 day week that I can remember.
Thanks goodness Leann (Lou's mom) will be getting here on Tuesday and by then I'll be better the kids will be healtheir and we will get to have some fun and I will have company during Lou's crazy time!

So sorry you've been sick and have had sick kids! Wish I could come up and watch them for you for a few days. I hope you start feeling better soon, I know that is not fun at all to feel like that. Yuck! I'm glad you get to have Leann there too; she's such a sweetie and will love seeing her grandbabies! Love you guys and let me know if there is anything I can do for you!

You're sick silly, don't beat yourself up about not being a good mom. Let yourself do the bare minimum and take care of yourself so you can get better and be a healthy mom next week.

I agree with Jill- just let yourself be sick and focus on getting better so next week you can go full force. It just isn't fair that moms can get sick.
