There is a flu bug flying around in the house and I’m the last to get it. Usually I’m pretty resilient but if I do fall prey, then it can get pretty severe. For a start, I’ve lost my voice and don’t sound as sweet as before.
The boy was concerned.
For the past two days, he kept coming into the room where I work and asked me if I was getting better. Then last night when we retired to bed, he said, “Mommy, I’m worried.” Apparently, he was worried about my illness! Then this morning, he said he’s sad because I’m still not better.
Though I’m still unwell, but my heart warmed up a lot to the words of concern from my little child. I was surprised he could use such emotional words to show his concern. And it’s certainly a lovely feeling to know he cares for me too.



Awww… !! that must be worth a million buck..
and you know what.. ?? they mean what they say.. even though .. they don’t know the impact they have on us.

She also told me to sleep in another room if I can’t stand the cold in our
