How I Stay One Step Ahead When Sick Gets Real

How I Stay One Step Ahead When Sick Gets Real

We love entertaining in this house. My kids love it as well. It seems that every weekend there is always a friend staying the night or we are having a family movie party. We love having people in our home and we are always inviting friends to come visit. Several times per year we have a house full of guests and are bursting at the seams. I wouldn't have it any other way. This is how I stay one step ahead when sick gets real.

Now that the leaves are changing colors, relatives are calling with travel plans, which means we get to host some family and friends as they pass through Atlanta on their way to other exciting destinations. Almost all of our friends have kids, and since my kids seem to get sick when traveling, I take preparations to keep everyone in the house well. Since that doesn't always happen, I overcome those sickness obstacles by providing my guests with a fully-stocked welcome basket with some of our favorite and most-used products in our household.

We also make certain that everyone in the house has:

• clean sheets to sleep on
• freshly laundered towels
• anti-bacterial wipes
• hand sanitizer (available in the bathrooms and kitchen)
• reusable water bottles with each person's name on it.

These are just a few precautions that we take to ensure that everyone has a good time and so that we avoid any sickness.

Most Used Products when Sick Gets Real in Our Household

For me, always being prepared is important. I promised myself that when I became a mother, I would keep things on hand rather than running out to the store once we are sick. It is such a relief to know that when I am prepared, these are solutions to relieve the fevers, coughs, and colds. They help keep your kids being kids. Just like in our home.
