I LOVE the flu!



Hello, world!

We are doing much better now, thank you for your well wishes! Chris and Ezra were spared from the flu death, and just got cute little matching colds instead. (Hey... ANYTHING is cute compared to what knocked me over a few days ago. Even snot!) We are all recovering slowly, and I'm even thinking of leaving the house again sometime in late July! (I've been a bit cooped up... a bit stir-crazy... but also kind of enjoying the seclusion and non-stop PJ wearing at the same time. I'm such a hermit.)

The day I was sick, my husband let me sleep. ALL DAY. Also? He took care of Ezra, cleaned the house, did the laundry, put fresh sheets on the bed, researched homeopathic flu remedies, went to the store and came home only to whip me up a batch of the yummiest homemade chicken soup I've ever tasted, and then he took Ezra to the mall so he could run around and play before he came home and put him to bed. (Oh! And I think he also found time to put an end world hunger in there somewhere, too.)

I felt so taken care of and so loved- it almost made the flu enjoyable.

ALMOST.

Thanks, honey bean. You are crazy amazing. (Will you marry me?)

yeah for Super Husbands! (and that you're feeling better!) He needs a cape like Ezra's.

Oh and seriously, how big does Ezra look in that picture? By golly, he looks so big. Like a big 3 year old kid.

I'd be lying if I didn't say that I'm a wee bit jealous. Homemade chicken noodle soup? Clean sheets? Grocery shopping? I think Chris may have a wonderful male strain of Martha Stewart-ism in him.
Lucky you! :)

Is your husband going to be offering classes any time soon? Where do we sign up? What did he put in the soup? Dying to know!
