The end of February and the first of March seem to be so hard because everyone seems to have someone in the family a little under the weather, we have been in our house. A while back I came across the idea to make a get better basket. It is full of the things you need to help you or your loved one feel better. It is filled with medicine like cough syrup, cough drops, Motrin, Tylenol, band aids, hydrogenporoxide, a thermometer, a flashlight (for taking temperatures in the night and giving medicine), a can of sprite, a teddy bear to hug when it's just to much, ect. We also filled ours with ideas of things to do when you're stuck on the couch. Some of the ideas are games, favorite books and movies, music to listen to, crossword puzzles and other book games, coloring books and crayons. Sick days come to everyone and this idea has made them a little easier for us to deal with. Make your basket to fit your families needs and make it together and remember hippity hoppity spring is on it's way.
