So, sorry for the lack of updates. I've been slightly sick/ slightly without internet. But mostly sick. Since last Friday (the 13th) I've slid headfirst into a terrible cold. I'll spare you most of the details, but basically it's really a nasty head cold. Add heat on top of that, and you can see how its hard to find relief! However, Mr. Idowu took me to the local pharmacy and bought some Amoxocillin for me so I can fight it off better. Before that I was just pumping Vitamin C and Advil into my body, but he said that wasn't enough. "If you're not from Africa, it will only get worse," he said. So we got the antibiotics.
(This is me after I took my meds. So obviously the fact that I am vertical means I was feeling better. Also, check out my dress! The angle doesn't really show the length, which is to the knee. And also note the wall of friends and family behind me. I just stop and stare when I miss you guys :) )
This past week has also been a holiday, but we've really just stayed home all week, preparing for school and hanging out on the cold tiled floor (at least I was. I embraced all things tiled whole heartedly.) I'm really thankful that I got sick during this week because it has been cool-ish, and the kids have been home so I haven't felt lonely and sick. And now I'm getting better. PRAISE THE LORD!!
Also, we received a new little boy yesterday. His name is Success and he's 8 weeks old. I don't have any pictures of him now because he's always crying if no one's holding him. I'm going to have to time this one well :)
Thank you everyone who prayed for me! I can now officially say I am on the mend.
Peace,
Sierra
