The Stomach Flu has come to town....

Hi everyone! It has been pretty much a sad place here for the last week and a half. Last week Justin, Katie and I came down with the stomach flu. By friday I was better and over the weekend I was able to go to my quilt retreat. I had a great time, and accomplished lots of quilting that I had been looking forward to working on. When I came home things looked okay, but then Rebecca came down with it. Robert this whole time wasn't feeling too great but managed not to succumb to it. So on Monday I made a big pot of chicken noodle soup which worked nicely on the more tender constitutions. Rebecca is finally better today and I expect her to be up and ready for school tomorrow. I spent two days disinfecting the whole house and I think we are finally safe to come out of hiding. We all kept saying how we need to remember to be grateful to God when we are in good health! I never appreciated eating food quite the same way that I do now. Praise the Lord for our good health and I am praying also that Brendan will be able to forgo this family illness.
