Month of Thanks -- Day 21

Remember a couple weeks ago when I was thankful that my family was healthy and wasn't getting sick like a lot of people around us were? 

Well, we have proven, yet again, that we are late bloomers.  

All of us were sick (except Cole and Scott) over the past couple of days. 

 Emma, Max, and Lee had the stomach-type flu, Elisabeth had an ear infection, and I had a sore throat and achy-type flu.  I had to teach Relief Society today (our teacher cancelled the last minute) so I just went to Relief Society.  

I already didn't feel well then I walked into the RS room and it was blazing hot.  They opened the door for a while but some of the older ladies were getting cold so they closed it. 

 I don't like it when it's hot.  

I don't function well in the heat.  

Well, I had to teach and apparently you could tell something wasn't right with me today (so I was told).  I tried to leave quickly after but an elderly lady pulled me aside after and 

asked if I was having hormone problems. 

 Nice.  

It's come to this!

I don't know what's worse, 

being asked if your pregnant when you're not or if you have hormone problems.

*sigh*

Today hasn't been the greatest day but I'm still thankful!

I'm thankful that everyone seems to be feeling better.

I'm thankful that this week is a short week and that we get to spend lots of time together as a family.

I'm thankful that tonight we were able to laugh together.

I'm thankful that Lee and the kids straightened up the house while I took a nap today.

I'm thankful for the yummy Snicker salad we got to enjoy that Elisabeth made and forgot to take to her ward's Munch and Mingle.
(My hips aren't thankful but I am.)

I'm thankful for a warm house.  It's freezing outside (we got our first real snow today).

Mostly,
I'm just really thankful for these kiddies...
(Even if I can't ever get them all to smile nice for a picture!)
