Dear Lord...

We rose today with runny noses and scratchy throats. My poor Brownies woke with dried snot stretched from one ear to the other. Breathing from their mouths and big swollen eyes...allergies and a cold I think. All this just in time for Daddy Brown's birthday next week. So, with that, I pray...

Dear Lord,

Please help my Brownies feel better. Please give me the strength to stretch my arms wide enough to cover them with love and understanding. Thank you for continued good health and goodwill to our brothers. Please keep Daddy Brown and I from getting sick. Please continue to give us sun and warmer weather. Please help Little Brownie not get so frustrated, so quickly with Big Brownie and please help him understand that biting is NOT the way. Please help Big Brownie to understand that all binkies do not belong to him. Please help them eat for nourishment and drink to stay hydrated. Please Lord, let them rest peacefully. Please Lord, let them feel solace and comfort in our kisses and hugs. Lord, I lift my Brownies up to you and ask for a speedy recovery. Thank you Jesus for being our Lord and Savior. Thank you for giving us each day and help us to live in each day as if it were the last. And lastly Lord, thank you for giving us a ray of sunshine in our newly passed down stock of "Zhu-Zhu Pets" from Aunt Berry and family. With such a wonderful distraction for the Brownies, they almost forget how bad they are feeling. In these things I pray to you in the name of Jesus...Amen.

AAWW!! So sorry they are not feeling well. Graham has been sawing logs all week because he can't breathe. Here we go on another round of anitbiotics. Praying Lila doesn't get sick.
Happy Birthday Brian! Hope you all get better soon.

Thank you so much for the reminder that no matter how icky I feel & how crazy things get, I'm not alone in this.

Praying your Brownies feel better soon!
