It's The Sun

Laney and I awoke today to the beautiful sunshine that we have been waiting for.  I have not run outside yet and yelled, "It's the sun."  I am not going to be running anywhere as I have awaken the last two mornings with a sore throat that feels like a blow torch has touched it.  And, now the laryngitis has begun.  I'm glad I am alone as I do not want to talk to anyone.   I am praying my husband does not get ill.  He has been keeping his distance from me and so has Laney. I feel like I have the plague as Laney is sitting across the room staring at me. We will enjoy the sunshine from the window today and possible step out side long enough to go to the mailbox.  The sun will have a short stay as another snow storm will grace us tomorrow with snow accumulations. I will be parking my chair by the window to soak up the warm rays from the sun while it visits.

Laney and I came across some funny and uplifting cards made by elementary school children.  They were cards that  students made years ago when my husband was first diagnosed with lymphoma. They are funny and packed with some sincere get well wishes and the pictures they drew.  The cards were actually from second graders.  It was my son's second grade class.  Today they are all adults and I hope they know that they are still making us laugh. A great way to make anyone smile is for children to make cards for someone.  Children say the funniest things and their art work is so original.  Thank you to those students who make every day sunny for my husband.

Les enfants nous inspirient avec la beaute quotidiene.
