My Husband is HOT!

And I'm not talking about in the "you look handsome!" sense!

The other day the Knight bought some new fire starter sticks for our wood stove, ones that we had never used before. When he went to go start the fire, the flames flared up and his face got burnt.

He had hundreds of tiny, tiny blisters all over his face. His skin was hot. and he had a cough.

The Knight's company had recently been bought out, and everyone is a little nervous about what exactly is going to happen to their jobs. On top of that, the Knight is up for promotion. So, although he took one day off to recover, he really didn't want to take more than that off, so he went to work all week. And of course, I was working every night this past week. And of course, the Guppy has two teeth coming in and she is VERY cranky. So, the Knight would work all day in this condition, then come home and have to deal with a very cranky baby and active three year old.

My poor, sweet Knight.

But this story has a happy ending. Last night, my family swept in to the rescue. While I was at work, they came over and caught up on all the housework and tended to both kids while the Knight rested.

When he woke up this morning, the blisters were gone, as well as the cough.

Another thing to add to our list of things to be thankful for this holiday season: wonderful family :o)
