I woke up dreading this day. Ben was sick through the night and Everleigh was not feeling well either. She nursed a collective of six times in the night. Mike took care of Ben, who takes an ordinary cold and makes it serious, due to asthma. Neither of us slept much.
Then Mike said the most beautiful words I have heard in a long time. "I'm taking the day off." His schedule hasn't allowed for time off in months and today we both needed it.
Everleigh has a full blown cold now and Kyrie is quickly joining her. She denied it all morning though, so she and I took the opportunity to have a little mother/daughter date. We did shopping, errands, and lunch at Wagner's Bakery. Mike and Ben have played games.
I have much to do but we picked up Mary Poppins from the library. After naps and dinner, we'll cuddle up and make the best of a sick day.

Sorry the kids are sick. I am fighting a cold also. I swear I will never fly again since I get sick every time. Not swine flu this year so that is an improvement.
Get well quickly kids.

Mike is a good man. Trust you had a healing afternoon and evening.
