Mama doesn’t get sick very often.
Almost never.
We’re not allowed to, are we sweet friends?
Yet I feel so stinkin’ gross.
But there was a bit of joy this morning.
It was Skyping with Emma for a few minutes.
When she learned I was really sick, she told me something {for my health} that I needed to do.
She actually got kinda’ bossy, in an Emma-charming way.
Her adamant bossiness actually made me laugh.
She persisted, not amused by my giggle.
But then when I didn’t act all that thrilled about what she was telling me to do
Emma got firm, “Seriously Mom! I’m not kidding. Like I’m not kidding at all. Do I need to beat you?”
Which of course, coming from her lips made me laugh even more.
I responded, “If you were to beat me, would that involve you coming home to do it?”
Without skipping a beat, “No more emails, calls or Skyping – it would be an emotional beating.”
Okay, Okay Emma.
I give. You win.
I’m doing “it”.
Just don’t beat me!
Love.
Get better soon……a little TLC goes a long way.
Praying for you Linny! Sure do love that girl of yours! She is an inspiration!
Aww so sweet and she is so cute, I love her heart and she loves her momma so you better listen. Haha. So sorry your sick, we will be praying. My kids have had some junk and I have been dodging it, ughh when moms get sick it really seems to knock us down. Hopefully we can connect so I can get this blessing to you. Get some rest.

*giggle*
That's awesome. I may have to use that someday. 🙂
Now that's funny! 🙂
She is a treasure, for sure.
And who knew… I prayed over every single one of your kids today (even your grandlittles, and your in-loves, and the ones that aren't at home right now)… and God impressed on me to pray for YOU and DW healthwise. Thankful for His timing.
l love that you pray for us regularly.. You are such a blessing to everyone who knows you! I love you friend!
What a lovely child!! 😉 Beatings are not required for me anymore either – I just giveup and go to bed!
hugs – aus and co.
Awww…sorry you are not feeling well! Will be praying that you feel better soon. It's hard when mama is down:)
It's a hard thing when Mom's of a large house hold are not feeling well. I will be praying for your speedy recovery, energy and strength. God be with you, susan
lemme guess…..she wants you to put garlic in your socks? :0)
Praying that you feel better soon! It is so hard for a Momma of many to be sick!
Did you go to the Doctor?
I so understand you deep love and closeness for your Emma! Katie and I joke about being each others BFF- I am passionate for me girl!
LOve you dear friend!
Ha! We call each other our BFF's as well. We have a blast! And no trip to the doc…I *rarely* go…like never actually. But this was the stomach bug. Plain and simple.
