There’s two kinds of sick: Mom sick, and everyone else sick. When everyone else is sick, Mom takes care of EVERYTHING! When Mom is sick, the older kids might have to help out a little, aka fend for themselves for a day. Yes, they might think they’re dying if they have to pour their own bowl of cereal or *gasp* take out the trash. And the world will definitely end if they have to cook dinner. It is what it is, Mom life!
Grace and Jenelle are pretty good about cooking and cleaning, and Sapphire is good about taking care of (ehem, smothering) us to make sure we are “okay” when we are sick. The best way to prevent Sapphire from asking if we are okay 100 times is, simply put, to not get sick.
Staying healthy is an important part of avoiding cough, cold, flu, and other ickies going around (especially during the Fall and Winter). We do a pretty good job staying healthy, but sometimes we all fall down. When Rachel or I can tell we are getting sick, the other usually kicks in and takes over. We plan meals ahead of time (like the spaghetti casserole I’m going to share later in this post), and the kids totally fend for themselves with cold cereal in the mornings for breakfast. Shhh… they love it!
