It`s tummy bug time again....sigh.
DD3 and 4 have both had it in the last few days, hence the lack of posts !
They are recovering, but whether my poor washing machine will ever recover is another question.......

We are preparing for D1`s imminent departure over the Pond to the USA for Christmas.
She leaves in the early hours of Monday morning to travel to Heathrow Terminal 4 by coach, which is a 4 and 1/2 hour journey to start off with.
I am going to miss her *so* much.

D2 is already sulking because she doesn`t want her sister to go as she will miss her so much. DD3 and 4 won`t get upset till they say goodbye and realise it really is going to happen :-(

As long as our small people are better, we will be going to Liturgy on Sunday en famille, and Father will read the blessing prayers for a journey over D1, who is a catechumen, and bless her new icon of St Tatiana of Rome (her patron) which she is taking on the plane with her, as well as her beloved icon of St Nicholas, Protector of Sailors.
I am starting to be tearful already, so I will stop typing and blow my nose :-)
