Tuesday Update

We are all still under the weather here. I bonded with the couch last night so I could sleep sitting up. I got some sleep at least. Usually when I got colds, they go straight to my ear. Since October, that pattern has changed. Now things are going into my lungs. I am coughing and wheezing. Yuck!

I sent Princess to school again. She has school pictures today. She insisted on wearing a dress and since it was not a P.E. day, what the heck? She looked very pretty today and so grown up! She is still coughing but no fever.

The Prince will go to pre-school today too. I was half-way tempted to keep him home and just watch movies all day and cuddle with both of my boys. My little Prince just loves his pre-school though. I am kicking myself for not starting him earlier.

The Knight and I are going to take it easy today. It may be a Chicken Little Day. I am not going to attempt the grocery store. We have milk. We have juice. We have eggs. We can make it a few more days.

Wow - it is quiet in here!

Wow! The Princess returned home from school around 3:00. The Prince and the Knight promptly woke up from their respective naps when we opened the front door. And yet, it is still quiet in here. Is this some sort of alternate universe? Where are my loud kids who like to scream and beg for candy and whine when I say no? Where is my two year old who has a constant need to cuddle....with me....in the rocking chair....with Bubba...NOW? To answer my own questions, the Princess and the Prince are quietly playing upstairs. I should probably be a bit concerned about this, but I know the hidden truth that Kindergarteners are also big tattle tales. If anything strange is going on upstairs, I will hear about it momentarily. The Knight is watching, what else?, Chicken Little. Hey! If it keeps him happy for a little while, sign me up. Some days my sanity gets sorely tested. If I get a little respite courtesy of a Little Chicken, I am going to take it.
