Not a Cheerful Bunch

I lost my voice! As a teacher, my voice is my most precious instrument. Oh, how I miss it and how I wish I didn't take it for granted (why is it that we often take for granted body parts until they fail us?).  I have been drinking a lot of water and savoring spoonfuls of honey. And it feels better today.

Margot is ill. She has a little bit of everything: runny nose, cough, mild fever, restless nights, and I'm sure the aches and pains we get as adults when we are feeling under the weather. There's nothing much I can do. It breaks my heart to see my little sprite in such a state.

And to top it all off, Simon has a cold, too.

Welcome to our house!
