On the Couch?

I have been in the grip of a relentless gastric flu bug for the past few days. I have spent more time lying down on the couch than I would care to admit! Resting isn't really something I do well, it should be right??... there is just far too much to be done here, it can wait though... I must admit, I feel very grateful right now, to lay down my head and let the waves of sinus and nausea pass...

I did manage to venture out into the garden today briefly, look up at the sky and and see the most wonderful cloud patterns, I thought, I must get my camera and share them here with you...
Within a few minutes they had all dissipated...
I will be taking it a little slower around here for a day or so, I think that is what my body is trying to tell me and no matter how hard I fight against resting, I think I am going to listen and r e l a x (just for a short while, I know it's important:).... Richard and the children have been wonderful and I am so grateful for having such a caring family.

I will see all you lovely people back here on Monday xo xo

Resting Quietly...

The flu has found its way into our home once again, our littlest one, Kye, is ill... He woke this morning coughing, with a very high fever.... his sisters and brother have made him a comfy, soft bed in the library where he can be close to all of us and we have a fire warming the room. He is surrounded with love... He seems so small lying here, even though he is five...
Today will be a restful day of peacefulness to help this little person heal...
It might be quiet here, in this space, for a few days...

****Kye Update****
Thank you all so much for your lovely comments about Kye yesterday, I really appreciate them:) He is much better today, still a little flat but much more like himself:)
Love to all
