carpet cleaner

I am so excited that I got an early Christmas present and yes it is a carpet cleaner. I was so happy about this that I assembled it while James ate dinner and was shampooing a carpet before he was even finished with his meal. Since we have been sick on and off since the latter part of November, I felt that I could do yet one more thing to rid the germs that are in this house. Not to mention since my youngest (almost 2 years old) does not have aim for the trash can or toilet when she has to throw up, something was definitely needed here. I was so happy to shampoo, well just about anything, and with all the attachments I was truly able too.

I am so grateful that we are coming through this virus and no trips to the doctors were made and it was just something that needed to run its course. I am grateful that early on the Lord gave me wisdom to just not attend certain events where I could have exposed others to this virus. Lastly, I am grateful for friends and family who recognized needs that we had as a family and served and provided meals for us when I really just could not do it.

Although my youngest, Emma, has had the worst of this virus, she has had the throwing up and diarrhea, my oldest (6 years) decides not to wake mommy because she is sick, and decides to serve Emma cereal. Well the cereal was a multi-grain cereal containing flax seed. Ah the last thing a potty training soon to be 2 year old needs let alone someone with the runs. Well every diaper this poor child had was though she had rotor- rooter run through her system. I have not seen mustard yellow poop since I had nursing newborns.
The kids will love this post as they get older.
