Personally my family and I have all taken turns this December to get ill and it was my turn on Christmas eve and beyond. Still feel a tiny bit rough today and it was a struggle on Christmas day/boxing day but it all turned out nicely and we seem to be getting over it now.

Kids were actually considerate with no drama to deal with which helped immensely :)

Still have a couple more days until everything needs to come down (tree etc) so I'm going to chill for a little while yet.

We were all ill as well. Ended up cancelling all of our family holiday plans. It was a small, quiet Christmas—I was worried that it wouldn’t feel special to my eldest (3.5y), but he seems to have had a great time despite it all. Our youngest is also teething right now so we are just completely wiped.
