Flold

Instead of feeling healthy and wonderful, several of us feel a little bit like we've caught a flold, which is a flu cold combo. Coughing, stuffed up, fever, aching, chills, somewhat miserable and certainly cranky.  Like the jellyfish incident of October 2015, Norman (our 1 year old man-cub) has been spared.  He's all smiley and full of happy-nesses. Owen is hopeful that tomorrow will bring his permanent cast. And I am ready to_____________. Fill in the blank. I don't know what I want, but I really want more or less of something. Something different. Something exciting, or diverting, or calming or edible. I'm feeling mighty restless, which might just be a side effect of being pretty immobile with an infant and an invalid. Or it might be a side effect of having a flold. Or it might just be a side effect of being me.

Calvin and Owen hanging out at home. They enjoyed some soda and the movie Holes. I love that movie.

Owen got a visit from our home teacher (church friend).

Owen built this church while hanging out on his back.

Owen and another friend who gave him this fabulous green fluffy ball face.
