A blessing in disguise

Under most circumstances

there can be two ways of looking at a situation.

My situation:

 I'm due to start a new job,

 my husband is away,

and my children are going to be contagious

over the next week ...

*sigh*

Do I wail and despair

or do I chortle and hoot

at the impossibility of it all?

Well, perhaps I did both ...

and then decided to call in the cavalry!

Thankfully, tomorrow morning my Mother flies in from Perth

to look after the girls whilst I go to work.

*whew*

So, although we've had a tumultuous week of
fevers, 

itchy feet,

spots 

and uncertainty,

our next week will provide a rare opportunity to spend time with Nana.

Thus, sometimes a difficult situation turns out
to be a blessing in disguise! :)

P.S. Thank you Mum

for your willingness to give up a week of your own life

and come to save us from our circumstances.
