we have been sick at our house for a week and a half. and still going strong. runny noses, multiple dr. visits, soar throats, bronchitis, ear infection, antibiotics, coughing, flem, throw up..... sigh. i am ready for it to be over. i have read the same library books over and over, and have seen the same library movies over and over. i was trying to get my hurting head to think of something to keep the girls occupied without too much energy needed on my part. so i put callie down for a nap, and i played school with addie. i was the teacher. today we learned how to write our ABCs.
we only made it to the letter C. but i enjoyed every second of it. i LOVE kids drawings, they way they draw a house or a person. every child's "person drawing" is different. i love the chicken scratch, the wobbly lines. the way they hold the long pencil in their little fingers. some stick out their tongue in that concentrated way.

That's a sweet idea. How sad that you are all so sick! And a week and a half, that's a LONG time! When you're all well we need to get together. It's been too long!
