my mom gave me this beautiful dress on that one day where we escaped sick children or being sick ourselves (in 3 weeks!) and managed to spent an afternoon in the tel aviv. and then she took these beautiful photos of me and j in our garden today.
he didn't go to kindergarten. we have had another week of sickness. this month seems like it's been the never-ending story of sickness. i know i wrote last week that we were fine. and i thought so, but i was wrong as the entire family is now on antibiotics due to a throat infection. we were given exactly 3 days of somewhat normality before the fever struck the first child again. then the next, my mom, me, d, and finally last child.
as much as i don't like taking antibiotics, or to give it to the kids, i was a stage where i was like "whatever works, i'll take it". i cannot describe my gratitude when the antibiotics started to work, the fever cleared and things started to get better. thank you so much, modern science! if you ever need anything, just let me know.
same goes for you, sweet television. even though i'm pretty liberal when it comes to kids and television (as long as i choose what they see), i do have limits. but they completely vanished as we all got sick again. and again. now when every one seems to be well, it's time for the big time tv-detox in this house. that, i am sure, will not be an easy fight. but i will win: the remote is under my control :)
your mother is an artist. just wondering- how is israeli tv?... besos!
ReplyDeletebeautiful dress and photos !! i hear you too ... tv limits go totally out the window here when there is sickness around !!
ReplyDeleteoh what a bummer... hope the sickness cloud has now blown over for good (am sick and on antibiotics myself at the moment, so feeling with you).

ReplyDeleteOh, it's lovely!! The sandals go perfectly with it too! These pictures are beautiful indeed!
ReplyDeleteDang it that sick bug! Really praying for it to stay away... for good!
beautiful dress. mama has good taste! and, yes, antibiotics (and tv!) do have their place in healing. every once in a while, they are really needed. so glad that you are on the mend.
ReplyDeletelovely dress and beautiful photo's.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that you are all finally on the mend. Antibiotics has it's place, I'm thankful though that my kids doctor doesn't prescribe it unless absolutely necessary.
Good luck with the tv!
whaouuuu these photos are great !!
ReplyDeleteshe captured the beauty of the moment !!!
the dress is fantastic! and i've to say that you are really beautiful. when a family is sick, everything has his own different rules...it's the same here. wish you a wonderful week*
ReplyDeleteLovely dress! I really like how you tie your hair it's gorgeous.
ReplyDeletelove the dress too. and you wear it very well! Lovely photos! You seem to have a great family. I hope you're done with the sickness. Must try the tv-detox here too!
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine you looking too fierce, in your beautiful new dress, brandishing a remote:)! Hope you finally win the battle against sickness: it must feel pretty awful to be sick in the heat of summer.
ReplyDeleteYou really got hit hard by this flu bug! I can't imagine how trying it must have been to be sick and take care of others who are sick too. You had your hands full ... I am glad you are feeling better now :)
ReplyDeleteThose photos of you are the sweetest ...
Gorgeous pictures, dress, hair, mom and kid ;-)
ReplyDeleteAnd hooray for antibiotics, I hope you'll all be back on track soon...again!!
thank you :)
ReplyDeletejane: israeli television is actually ok. they have crap too, but there are four channels with only movies, including quite a lot of european movies, in fact i've seen many new danish movies down here. and they do subtitles - phew - no hebrew speaking sandra bullock here. they also have a channel with only documentaries, which i like.
i must admit i don't wathc much regular israeli tv, though. i'm embarrassed to say that my hebrew still sucks and i miss out on a lot when i try to watch news or tv shows.
Being sick is the worst...I always feel like it will never end. That dress looks really lovely. Glad you are all on the mend.
