Comforter Duty

It’s the cold and flu season everywhere including our house. Daddy had just recovered when Benji’s flu symptoms began. Our little fellow developed a sore throat, hacking cough, fever and runny nose. You could tell he felt bad and wasn’t his normal playful self. He had problems sleeping and just wanted to be held. For several nights in a row, I got up and slept with him sitting up in the recliner so he could breathe easier. All of us took turns comforting our little boy, and this safe harbor really seemed to help him through his illness.
