I don’t know about you, but I dread snow days! The kids are always so excited when their school announces a closing… I always wonder if they’ve lost their minds:) What is so great about six people being cramped into one house on a nasty, icy, snowy winter day? Well, that’s what it’s been ALL WEEK!!!
Here’s a look at this week around my house…
~ One sick toddler, who doesn’t yet understand the warning signs of vomitting… Yuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
~ Another sick child, who has asked me, repeatedly, why God isn’t hearing her when she tells him that she doesn’t want to get sick again.
~ A tween daughter who seems to think that the world is coming to an end whenever she’s told that she needs to do something.
~ An infant with a runny nose, and poopy diapers that just add to the stomach virus problems for the two vomitting children.
~ A husband who planned his vacation for this week. He thought he was going to relax for a few days! Ha! He should have known better…
~ My husband and I were going to go out for Valentine’s Day, but that didn’t happen. We’ve not been able to go out alone since August!
***** I’m to the point that, when they’re all well, I will carry them on my back to work and school just to get a day of peace***** (Somewhat kidding). I mean, if driving conditions are the primary reason for closing school, then forget driving! We’ll create our own story about walking ten miles to school in 2-feet of snow. Really, it’s only about 6 inches of snow, and less than a mile to the school.
Anyway, maybe next week things will be back to normal…
