Lazy Days

I certainly didn’t intend to spend my Spring Break wiping somebody else’s snotty nose, but that is what it has come to. Micah brought home what appears to be the flu and Simon had it by Sunday. Somehow I seem to have escaped the worst of it with only a sore throat and a bit of achiness, but Simon is doing double duty. Not only has he had a high fever, watery eyes and runny nose, but he’s teething. Or maybe the teething is causing the watery eyes and runny nose. I don’t know. But what I do know is that I can see at least three teeth coming in on top. He’s been chilling on the couch for the better part of three days now.
I have to say, I have imagined scenarios in which I was home with a sick child (or two), but in my imagination, the kids were old enough to appreciate a good book or homemade chicken soup. At least we can snuggle on the couch together.

    Wow! That’s some ‘fro on that kid–and red too!! Too bad it isn’t curly.

    I hope the bug leaves your house soon! Here’s to a healthy next week!
