Well, here we are at fall break. It begins today, but our break actually started for our family yesterday. That means I have my little darlings with me for the rest of the week. I actually love it, but it comes with its own challenges. I kept the kids home yesterday from school because they weren't doing well. Here is the health report:
1. Aaron had diarrhea and a sinus infection
2. Andy was playing on the playground at school and a hornet flew up into his shirt. It stung him on the torso and the back, and then fell out of his shirt and tried to sting him on his foot (because, of course, he had removed his shoes--which, by the way, we haven't seen since. Mental note: check the lost and found at school for Andy's shoes...)
3. Tommy has dry ice burns on his hand because he stuck his hand into the punch bowl of "witches brew" and picked up the piece of dry ice. (I have so many issues with that one, where to begin???)
Needless to say, we kept the kids home on Tuesday. Now it is fall break. Hooray! I just hope I can keep them alive long enough to send back to school next week.
On another note, Lilli is doing fine, but she has grown a fondness for art. This would not be a problem were it not for the endless supply of sharpie markers that she seems to have sequestered around the house. I am baffled as to where they are all coming from.
