Flu.

On Saturday, the very last day of the month of June, I tested positive for the flu.  The flu.  In the middle of the summer.  Who gets the flu in June?  Apparently I do.  Fortunately I was extremely blessed that Kyle already had taken the first half of the week off, so he was able to take care of me and the kids.  Poor guy, though.  His first vacation days since Christmas (where we were also all sick) and he gets to play Mr. Mom. Ahhh.  Such is life.

I think this is the sickest I have been in my entire life (minus being pregnant).  You name it, I've had it with this flu.  Throat on fire, congestion, fever, coughing, chills, sinus pressure, achey back, headache, vomiting, yep, that about sums it up.  But thanks to Kyle, I've been able to stay in bed and sleep and rest, it's been SO nice.  And my sweet parents took the kids after church yesterday and all day today so that they could keep their distance from me and hopefully not get sick.  I'm so lucky to have such amazing people in my life.  And how did my body know to get sick when Kyle had already planned to be home?  What a huge blessing!!  So, despite how not fun it has been being this sick, I have to say how incredibly grateful I am for everything that has pulled through for me.  Divine intervention?  I think so.  :)
