Flu spelled backwards is ULF - that's how we feel!

Yes, we are still dealing with this flu/respitory bug. It's hit our family quite hard. Our oldest son spent most of his day in bed yesterday, and did not go to work today. All the kids have complained of bad headaches, chills, and then being real hot. Katie (3.5) woke up during a nap yesterday and held her head and cried. I can't remember the last time we have all been so sick at one time. (But it's been rather quite in the house and kids are going to bed BEFORE their bedtime without being told numerous times to GO TO BED!!)

We've had some "low key" days, mainly because of the illnesses. Katie (3.5) is our main one the last couple of days who keeps bringing up Matthew's name, and asks "when will he wake up?" She remembers seeing him at the funeral home. She does not understand. She told me today that she is taking care of Matthew's special pillow (an pillow I made with a quilted airplane on that she carries around with her, and HAS to have at bedtime) and that Matthew wants her to take care of it until he comes back. That sweet innocence.
