Wow. So I’ve decided if the flu had a face, I would totally punch flu in the face. Terrible people. Terrible. But I am happy to report that after 8 days, today I finally feel a little less like death. Internet fist bump. I have been so sick and just feeling so down about how this time leading up to Christmas has looked nothing like I had envisioned. No kindness advent. No salt dough ornaments. No fun Christmas crafts. No baking. Ugh…it just made my heart hurt…all those well thought out plans and then BAM! the flu, in the worst kind of way. BUT…we sure did slow down…that’s for sure. And I will say, the Kelley family has enjoyed each others sick company. And for that I am thankful.
And I would love for us to get to do today’s kindness advent. We bought up fun books…before the flu hit…in preparation and maybe, just maybe will get to give them away some how.
We shall see. Right now Sol and I are curled up nice and snug with some Gatorade on the couch. But maybe we will get some new energy. Who knows…the Kelleys could get crazy with our flu love.
And…Hey tomorrow is Christmas Eve. Happy Sunday!

Praying for you guys. So thankful your body is feeling better. You are an incredible family and I remember last year at our church Christmas service God laying all of you on my heart to pray. He is covering you guys through this sickness and also I know you are heart sick for your sweet momma. I love how he even sends us internet peeps to pray for His people. Be blessed Laura.

I hate that you have been so sick! It’s so not fun when you don’t get to do the very things that help you prepare your heart and soul to receive once again the holiness of our King. As I read your message, the first thing I thought was now that you are feeling better you could rearrange your thinking and simply give the 12 days of Christmas that lead into Epiphany! Christmas doesn’t actually start until the 26th anyway and Epiphany is the day in which we celebrate those that brought the three gifts to our King. You have a full days after Christmas that you can do your very cool thing…you have days that you can then give your kindness and show the world the true meaning of Christmas!! I hope that you and the family feel better soon and that you still get to have fun sharing the joy of Christ with others!!
I love how in the picture of Harper and Amon he is smiling big with his big sissy. I can’t get enough of the relationship those two have. It is beyond precious. I hope you get well soon. Happy holidays!!
