Under the Weather

Thursday night I didn't sleep well at all. My throat had been feeling scratchy all day, but then during the night I started getting congested and coughing. Poor Sam agreed to stay in my big bed with me after Sarah and Charity left, but I'm thinking she's probably regretting that decision now.

I'll spare you all the details, but I've been feeling under the weather since that night and just keep praying that God will at least give me more energy so I can love on the kids this week. Last night I went to bed at 10pm and woke up this morning at 10:30am. Lorinda, Sam, and I attended a women's conference at the church this afternoon, and when we got back at 5:30, I went back to bed for another hour. I just feel completely wiped out.

I also hope to get feeling better so I can visit little Themba. I don't mind being around the toddlers and older babies while I'm sick since they've all had runny noses and coughs and probably gave this to me. But I want to be really careful with Themba since he's only a few days old.

Please be praying that Themba and the other babies stay healthy and that I recover quickly so that I can continue to serve and be a blessing at Lighthouse during my last few weeks here.
