Diversity, dialogue and multiculturalism in America

Oh, no, I think I have the flu.

See you after I get plenty of rest, fluids and sympathy from a husband who is OUT OF TOWN.

Do you think a four year old can make soup?

    oh no! I hope you feel better before next Fri. If you don’t, I’ll understand, but I really hope you do!

  2. Finn says:

    Oh honey! I wish I was there to make soup for you. Can you FedEx soup?

  3. SciFi Dad says:

    No, but they can make microwave bacon.

  4. Avitable says:

    I think any above average four year old should definitely be able to make soup.

    • Faiqa says:

      @Avitable, “Making soup” does not mean heating the contents of a can. And I seriously doubt that you can make soup from scratch.

      It follows, then, that your abilities lie below that of the above average four year old.

      Ha. See what I did there? Kneel before Faiqa.

    If you need anything, I will bring it to you! Just let me know. Anything, seriously.

    NO NO NO NO!!!!! The flu is horrible, especially when you have incredibly small, yet enormously demanding, little people. They have a psychic sense and feel the need to amp up the whining and tantrum-throwing when they know you are weak and cotton-headed.

    I will drive all the way over there just to make you soup or just to help you climb down off the ledge. Okay? Yes. Good.

    • Faiqa says:

      @Courtney, I think you’re on to something with the whining/sickness ratio. And, thanks for the soup offer, but you stay far away until I get better… we don’t want to expose YOU to amped up whining!

      • Courtney says:

        @Faiqa, I have a force field against whining, amped or otherwise. You’ll get yours once Y is 2 and your life becomes “stop fighting” on a loop.

        Seriously thought, if you need something say the word :)

  7. Jason says:

    Oh, no is right. I’m sorry. Get better fast!

  8. Sybil Law says:

    I just had a sick kid, so I am hoping to avoid it myself!
    I hope you feel better ASAP.
    xoxo

    I don’t know about soup, but they can definitely make poop.

    I’ll be here all week. Tip your waitstaff.

  10. Becca says:

    I’m so sorry!! Hope you feel better soon! :)

  11. Oh. Honey. Call the posse. Get some chicken soup over there. Stat. Wish I could ply you with Jell-O. Much, much, much love.

  12. Hockeymandad says:

    Oh no, where can I hide? Wife had it last 2 days after kid A had it last weekend.

    Hope you feel better soon. It’s nasty.

  13. Peau says:

    sorry hon. :( i got a bug too, so i’m looking for soup as well…

  14. Borrow Britt’s kids. I’m sure they can cook for you. (;

    I hope you feel better!

  15. I think that Adam should come over and cook, clean and take care of the kids.

    Yup.

  16. I wish 4 year olds could make soup, but when I got mine to make grilled cheese, she burned herself. Right.before.my.eyes!

    I hope you feel better.
