Snow and Sickness

Snow and Sickness.... two things we've had our fair share of this winter. Luke just had his 9th snow day today. Crazy! We've still got quite a bit winter left and another snow storm likely to hit on Wednesday. I am so done with the snow. I feel bad for the kids as well. I think Luke is getting bored at home. I try to work with him on his popcorn words and do math and stuff, but it is just not as much fun as school. These kids aren't going to want to be in school in June when it's warm and sunny either. So, please Mother Nature... spare us! NO MORE SNOW! I think we are only a few inches away from the Top 10 snowiest winters... I believe it.

We've also been much sicker about here than usual. I feel like we've been really lucky in the past and neither one of the kids are really been sick, other than a cold here and there. Just this last week, starting last Monday, Luke got a stomach bug, then I caught it, then Emma. It's been just awful. One night I just wanted to take Emma's sheets and PJs straight to the garbage. It's been even harder to deal with since Andy's been in Washington DC for the March for Life. I've been cleaning up the throw up all by myself and if you know me... I don't handle it well. I've thrown up a few times cleaning up the throw up!! Sorry if that's too much information. But really, I am ready for us to ALL be healthy. Before this round of sickness, I had a sinus infection and a bladder infection... I'm NEVER sick!! Luckily, I think we are all almost over it and the house is cleaned and degermed and ready for Andy to get home tonight. Hopefully he won't get it!!

It's been a strange winter for us with all the snow and sickness, but it'll be over soon! :) And my sweet husband gets home tonight, so I am excited about that! :)
