I haven't been feeling well the past couple of days. My oldest had the flu, and I think she shared the wealth. After the younger kids went to bed last night, I laid down on my trusty futon and I could hear the oldest puttering around in the kitchen. Lo and behold, she cleaned the kitchen. Like, really cleaned it. It looked fabulous this morning. Then I found a note instructing me to look at the whiteboard in the kitchen when I got up this morning. When I did, this is what I found:
And she did make breakfast - cheesey scrambled eggs, which were delicious!
After we got breakfast done, we started on the eggs....
5 kids, 36 eggs, and 1 sickly momma - but we got them done with little to no drama. If that isn't a miracle from above, I don't know what is!
And now on Twitter too! Click here
That is sweet! How wonderful when our children surprise us with kindness! Patsy from

It was fantastic - and I should add that the "oldest" one who did the kitchen and breakfast - is only 11!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet helper! I remember my son Jeff bringing me chicken noodle soup in bed when I was sick. So comforting. I hope you're feeling better today, and have a blessed Easter!
