Why We Miss Living in a Warm Climate December 21, 2008
Posted by Emily in : Daily Life, Islands, My Handsome Husband, Princess Hannah, Saba, Thoughts , trackbackWe’re all sick around here.
One of the reasons David and I want to settle in a warm climate is to avoid the chronic sickness that comes along with cold weather.
David starts a Pediatric rotation in a couple weeks. When I complained to him about doing a Pediatric rotation during the winter months, and ALL THE SICK KIDS he would see all day, everyday, who would be coughing, sneezing and sharing their nasty germs with him, he smiled.
Because if he sees a thousand sick kids over the next six weeks, he’s going to learn something about how to treat and care for most child related illnesses. Won’t that be great for us when our kids get sick? He’ll know how to treat them! What better time to do a pediatric rotation?
This is honestly what he said to me. This man must be the most optimistic person that ever lived. (The benefits of seeing so many sick kids during the peak winter months never crossed my mind . . . but I must admit, I LOVE this quality about my husband.)
All I’m saying, is that when we lived here:
Hannah and I never got sick. Not once. From time to time, I may have thought I was going to die from heat stroke, or drown from breathing such humid air, but we never got colds.
Here’s to hoping there’s a warm climate in our future . . .

Wow, that is one snotty nose! Hope you all get better soon!
I love that pic of Hannah! Don’t you love being a mom??? It will be nice to have your own personal pediatrician though! No more calling the dr. office & waiting on hold for 23 minutes waiting to talk to a nurse! That is quite the blessing!
OOO!! Yucky nose. It will be a hard winter. Your first home from Saba. We were sick almost every day that winter. It gets better, but I agree with you. I will take the warm any day.
That picture is awesome!! Very. Awesome.
Poor little lady! I hope everyone is feeling better soon!
