Prayer Request!!!

I put a counter on here 3 weeks ago (to the hour) thinking that maybe 20 folks would read the blog in a week. Significantly more are checking in and so I thought I'd post a prayer request.

Please pray for our home. I do all I can to keep us healthy around here. You can imagine how illness can sweep through a family our size...often reinfecting the first ones by the time the last ones are feeling better.....

This upcoming week is our birthday week. Nolan, Josiah and Alex all have birthdays. It is also the last full week before the ORI begins on base (translates to long hours and stress at work for Mike). We've done so well not getting ill....but

YESTERDAY Nolan came down with a fever and headache. He threw up once. Now he's got a sore throat too and is nauseated and feverish. He'd asked for a party with friends and has so been looking forward to it...and now he feels bad....and I don't want this to spread to the rest of us at this time.....

Please pray he recovers quickly and that the rest of us don't catch this right now. Please pray that we are able to stay "on track" as Mike prepares for the ORI.

Thanks all. . . whoever ya'all are. {g}

PS a prayer for my sanity is always good too....I feel a bit queasy myself...and that ringing cow bell (I give them when they are sick) coupled with lack of sleep and fussy babies....appreciate your prayers.
