My Thoughtful Place

A place to ponder, ruminate and meditate about family and life.

Hoping for a Healthy April

Did you ever feel like you lost a whole month?  That’s how I feel about March.  First we had the stomach virus which began the 2nd week in March.  My little man was sick for 5 days, my princess picked it on the 5th day(on her 5th birthday no less) and had it for 3, and then I got it.  I felt lousy for about 5 days.  It was almost a week after that cleared that my son began the 5 day fever with cold.  I’m still recovering from the cold.  Thankfully, the almost 2 yr old bottomless pit is back to normal.  He’s always hungry!  I don’t know where he puts it.  Today, I asked him if he had a hole in his stomach and he said “yes” as he trotted into the kitchen.  What is he going to be like when he’s a teenager?  I don’t think we’ll be able to keep enough food in the house.

 I’m also very tired.  I think I’m just worn out from all the sickness.  What I really need is a week on a tropical island.  Sun and sand.  And maybe a pina colada or two!  But that isn’t going to happen right now.  So I think I’ll go to bed and dream about it!

If I don’t get a chance to write anymore this week, may everyone who reads this have a Blessed Easter!

  1. (((Dale))) I hope you are feeling better soon and that both your kiddos stay healthy.

    I feel like I lost March too, given my dad’s death and then being sick myself for three weeks….just too much stress, I think.

    I had a little chuckle about you worrying about feeding your son during his teen years. I have an 18 yr old who has eaten me out of house and home since he was 12. I can spend $400.00 on groceries and two days later he tells me there is nothing to eat in the house! You just wait.

    Happy Belated Birthday to your little princess!

  2. I hope you have a healthy April. Hopefully when spring actually comes you can get some windows open and air all the germs out.

    So when are we leaving for the tropical vacation? He he. I could really use one too.
