Sickies

We have some sort of head cold. A friend of mine, Sarah, sent me an article on GOOT and I was so thrilled! I had completely forgotten about garlic. Now to mix it with coconut and olive oil - perfect!

We have been treating with essential oils, hot tea, humidifier, and Epsom salt baths. The kids have been so pampered these last few days! If it wasn't for nighttime stuffies and coughing, it might not be so bad :)

First Drakeford, then mommy, now marlow. We are protecting daddy!! We are so glad he is home safe with us and have made it very difficult for him to return to work with all the fire side pajama parties (yes sick, but children are so spirited any time! It makes it hard for anyone to leave a cuddly little bundle like marlow-chubby-bubs)
I do realize now what a trooper Drakeford really is. He lets me do whatever I need to for him to get well and doesn't make a protest. Marlow is a tad bit more normal. One wash cloth on the head to lower her fever and she had it! (We used peppermint instead, it worked very well) They both enjoy the GOOT, tea, and essential oils though so I am pleased. Not to mention the sweet cuddles one is obligated to give - motherhood is full of hard tasks!
I pray The Lord Jesus would heal our family. In Him we live and move and breath. All for His glory, in sickness and in health.
