In Sickness and In Health

My poor kids have had some serious stomach illness over the past few days. Max is about 90% back to normal but my poor Hank-man is still struggling. He doesn't let his throw up bowl get too far away. I can't get him to eat anything. Luckily he will drink a little here and there.

He sleeps most of the day and says very little.

This face breaks my heart. How I wish I could take the sickness away from him.

He even missed school pictures today. I just hope that he wakes up and the healthy Hank is back. I miss him. It makes me really appreciate having healthy kids most of the time because it sucks when they are sick.

Max is up to his old tricks again.

He really is missing playtime with Hank.

I realizes he has red-eye in these pictures but I didn't fix it because it just fits his personality these days. He's a bit possessed if you will.

It always amazes me when my kids or myself have bouts of sickness, it seems we have never been well, or I can't remember us feeling good. The following pictures are of my sweet Grandma Joanne's 80th birthday celebration only 4 days ago. This is to remind me of a time when things were much healthier in the Griffin family.

Max was rocking a fab outfit, skinny jeans and all.

Hank actually had some color to his face. My grandma was a bit under the weather, believe it or not, and still managed to look stylish and gorgeous as ever. I love you Grandma. Hank was just beginning his illness this day but didn't want to miss her party for anything. My kids adore her. Hopefully they didn't share their disease....nothing says Happy Birthday like the stomach flu!

I saw the poor little thing in person this morning...but these pictures...uh!!!

Kids should never be sick. Ever. The end.

Lucky for Hank...he has you to take care of him.
(oh...and Jack has you too....thanks, by the way)
