After Thanksgiving

Well, we had a wonderful Thanksgiving with our family. We went to my cousin's and enjoyed the holiday with my family. We really had a nice relaxing day. The only thing that wasn't real fun was that Josie has been sick. She has had this congestion thing going on and coughing. She has been getting better in the last day, but it has wore us out since she gets up in the middle of the night and comes to our room and we have to give her her medicine to help her stop coughing. She has had a fever on top of it and Thank God for Motrin (it has really helped:)). Josie has been a little grumpy while she has been sick. It has been funny though, because when I tell people when I am talking to them on the phone, that she is getting better, she will look at me and say, "I am not well." I just laugh, it sounds so cute to hear her say that. We are relearning what it is like to have a sick 4 year old in the house again:) Steven is 9 and so it has been 5 years since a 4 year old has been living here (Thomas was 7 when he came home). I am very thankful that Josie seems to be getting better. I know that this climate change is very hard on the body, it has been on mine and I have lived here all of my life:). But, we had a nice holiday and I was so thankful for my family and the fact that we were able to be together and eat together. I also got a call from my oldest:) sister on Thanksgiving(I know she will love that I said that). She usually calls us to tell us Happy Holidays. She got to talking to me, she said something to me that really meant a lot to me. I am not going to say exactly what she said b/c I kind of like to keep that between us, but she knows what she said and it really meant a lot to me. Thanks Sandy, your a great person too, thanks for all of your support, you will never know what it has meant to me. God has given me a wonderful family!
