Gratituesday- Grateful for Well Timed Sickness

I know it sounds odd, but I'm grateful for our entire family getting sick this week instead of last week.  We all came down with colds Sunday morning that we just haven't shaken, its been 4 days, but that is super rare for us to be sick more than a day or two.  I'm grateful it didn't happen last week when we had a Valentine's Day party and Sofia's second birthday party along with all the planning that goes with it.  We were able to celebrate with our family and then get sick:)  We then spent Sunday through today (Wednesday) spending quality time as a family.  At least we didn't have to worry about making someone else sick.  President's Day Mark had off work so we taught the girls to play bingo, did lots of puzzles, and watched a movie.  Normally we'd be doing house projects or running around, Mark did finish painting our new headboard...it's awesome.  It has been nice to just stop and spend large amount of quality time together without feeling like the house needs to be cleaned or needing to go to a meeting or run errands. 

On that note, I am hoping we all shake this cold soon:)
