Feeling So Grateful

I am so thankful for my parents. I've got this nasty head cold which has prevented me from having the fun filled UEA weekend I had hoped for. I had a girls night planned, fun things to do with the kids, etc. and what are we doing? Staying in bed all day watching movies and playing video games. Sieauna has it too and just a few minutes ago Alex came in the kitchen and told me he has the sniffles. Bummer. So...while I'm in pity party mode, guess what happens? My mom brings over a book, game for the kids and a grocery bag full of comfort food! Soups, cupcakes, Cheetos for the kids, medicine, dinner for tonight and ginger ale. Then, not 10 minutes later, the doorbell rings again and it's my other mom (in-law) with a huge batch of home made chicken noodle soup-which she just happened to "whip up" while cooking all her other things for a girls night dinner at her house tonight (which I was suppose to be attending but I don't dare impose this nasty cold on anyone else). Anyway, I am feeling uber blessed and grateful right now. THANKS MOMS!!!!! - Now...where did I put those cupcakes?
