Alternate Title: The good thing about a bad cold.
Since that title seems contrary... what could be good about a cold?.. I opted for the one I put. It started with a sore throat on Monday night, noticeable but not good. Tuesday was pretty much the same thing. Wednesday...that is when it hit me. I have been feeling rather bad to really bad since then. Yesterday I took a nap for an hour and a half, got up, made dinner and went to church. I really didn't feel like going and I felt worse as time went on. (of course, I am glad I did go and the message was great) We left just a few minutes after service ended and I came home, took some night time cold medicine, and went to bed. I woke up to many times to count during the night. At 7 this morning I decided to get up and get more night time cold medicine and go back to sleep, and that I did until 10:30. I probably would have slept longer, but someone little was waking me up. So, I got up and sat in a chair.
This is the good part: Kyle asked me how I was feeling as soon as he saw me and about thirty minutes later he was "posting" signs for his "restaurant". This is the third time he has done it, and I have to say I really, REALLY love it! I get to sit around, he asks me what I want to eat.. anything is good as long as it is in the house and he can make it :) Today's breakfast was rather easy with scrambled eggs and orange juice. I might see if the restaurant is open later for some soup too!
So, the entire reason for my post is just because Kyle is such a sweet young man, and he is such a blessing to me. I am glad God gave me such a caring, tenderhearted child. He is usually thoughtful, but when I am sick he goes the extra mile.
P.S. Julie, in case you were thinking it, no you can't have him :)

I'm sorry you aren't feeling well. I'll keep you in my prayers for a speedy recovery. Kyle is too sweet. I have been sleeping in the recliner for a few nights, just easier to breath sitting upright, and Jacob gave me his glow stick so I could see because it is sooo dark in the living room at night with the lights turned off. Just gotta love thoughtful kids.
I am so sorry you are sick. That's no fun! Take care and get well soon. Kyle is a great kid, well actually, both of your kids are great kids. I am glad that my kids have friends like your kids. No Kidding! Love ya!
I'm sorry your feeling under the weather. What a thoughtful young man Kyle is turning out to be. I think all of you are just so hospitable and have great hearts. Hope you get to feeling better soon.
And I was just about to ask you again . . . can I HAVE him? Kyle is a precious young man and I appreciate him and his testimony SOOO much. P.S. I also enjoy being around him, he is a delightful friend.
Well if Mrs. Julie can't have him, can I? Kyle is such a good young man. My husband and I often comment to each other how thoughtful he is and how he's such a gentleman. I'm sorry you had to feel so crummy, but glad that you have such great help when you do feel bad.
