Witch Doctor

Chet calls me the witch doctor. For my birthday, my mom gave me a bunch of doterra oils. I don't know what I think of them yet. I think that they can be helpful. But that they are these AMAZING heal allers, no. I have been using them whenever I see a chance. My kids have been sick since Thanksgiving. Yep, that means I am almost in a depression! Sick kids for almost a month. I have had at least one sick kid almost every day. We have missed so much school. First the flu, and now headaches and sore throats with really high fevers and coughs. So at this point I will try just about anything, and really believe that it is going to work, I need something to hold onto. So this morning as I was applying peppermint to Cael's forehead; he was shaking his head at me, and I could just hear his thoughts. "Mom, you are crazy. You put these stinky things on my forehead that make my eyes water and I hate this!" I pulled out the onguard, and then he had had enough! He looks me right in the eyes, with those sad little sick eyes, and says very slow and calm, but stern, "I don't need those. Stop putting them on me! That is enough!" I just kissed him and hugged him, all the while rubbing oil he didn't know I had on my finger on the back of his neck. Chet has next week off, and I couldn't be happier about it. We can all just hermit in the house and get better. Dr Mario wars, here we come!!!
