What She Doesn't Know

She has no clue that yesterday was her 4th birthday. We chose to delay any mention and celebration of her day until she can manage to eat her chosen birthday meal with true enjoyment.
Who can celebrate on a day when you are so wiped out that you fall asleep on the couch at ten o'clock in the morning?

After spending the weekend celebrating two postponed family Christmases, the Girl and I both came down with the stomach flu and have been in bed for the last two days recovering. We are on the mend, but taking it easy.

And looking forward to that elusive 4th birthday celebration. And coffee.

Poor thing! Poor you too! At least she didn't get what my son got for his 4th birthday. He had to have surgery on his eyes on his 4th birthday -- the only day they could schedule it. Yeah, we managed to celebrate anyway! Hope you both feel better soon.

Oh poor both of you. You know you're sick when you do without coffee. Feel better soon!

Poor baby...she looks so sweet. Who on earth gave you the flu bug for Christmas?

Feel better...

Nothing worse than being sick on your birthday! Wishing you both a speedy recovery. My youngest son celebrated his 8th birthday yesterday. Happy Birthday to both our little ones.

Aww...she looks so sweet. I'm sorry you both are not feeling well. I hope the two of you are quickly on the mend and able to devour lots of birthday cake!

You poor things :(. I hope you have a speedy recovery! How sweet & smart of you to delay the birthday celebration! That would have never occurred to me.
