Flu The Coop
The Cappillino house escaped the Flu last year...however, this year the "bug" has flown in and reaping havoc! ... "Shoo fly don't bother me - I have too much to do!!" As a matter of fact, the Cappillino that is most affected is the one that has been home from school for two days now.
The Flu couldn't have come in a more inopportune time for Darby... She missed her 3rd grade performance program. Darbs had been working so hard on her speaking and SINGING part...she would practice everyday. I hated to see how disappointed she was once the Dr. told her, "no school till Monday". She fought back the tears... Mom held back a few tears too. This may seem simple to most, but for Darby this was a real heart breaker.
Many things are out of our control and disappointment can come no matter how hard we try to keep it away... A difficult lesson for ALL ages to understand (especially a 9 yr. old) Not sure if you are dealing with some "flu like symptoms" today if so: drink plenty of liquids - John 7:37 - 38 Jesus said, "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him." and get plenty of rest - Psalm 16: 9 -11, "Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure, because you will not abandon me to the grave, nor will you let your Holy One see decay. You have made known to me the path of life, you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand." Doctors orders!!
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!!! Leigh Cappillino
