Patience...

I've had sick kids stuck in my house going on five days now and as much as I love my kids we're all going a tad bit crazy. We are now at the "still sick, but feeling good enough to fight stage" topped off with frigid weather and no chance of getting out of the house. I need my sanity back.

A moment from today...

Fantasy: Two kids playing happily together, using their imagination, and being creative.
Reality: A constant disagreement on which block should go where and what knight sits on what horse.
My Reality: Putting on Swell Season, taking a deep breath, and pounding kneading some bread.

I made bread today too! It's not as much fun, though, when the temperature is 89 degrees outside.

It's only 8 degrees here, much better for making bread!

You have my sympathy. I went through this last week with sick offspring as well. I like your idea of pounding the dough. Great stress relief. And that bowl looks BEAUTIFUL. Hope they feel better soon x
