Sometimes it’s fun being sick

The Maker had a bad cold the other day.  Runny nose, sore throat, your basic not-feeling-that-great kind of thing.  He was pretty much over it within 24 hours, at which time he noted that “sometimes it’s fun being sick.”  In particular:

1. You get a lot of cool toys to play with in bed, and your brothers don’t get that.
2. Sometimes it’s nice to just lay down and relax.
3. Other people get you stuff, like if you need something like a drink of water they’ll get it for you because you can’t get up.
