My house has been under siege by some sickie germs the last few weeks. Like seriously under siege people…I’ve had at least one child home sick at least 2 days each week since the week before Halloween. They seem to be passing it back and forth to each other all while my husband and I are trying to stay out of the line of fire. Somehow he’s managed to stay healthy (knock on wood); I’ve had a few feeling run-down moments, but thanks to a few good nights’ sleep and daily shots of Emergen-C I seem to be managing fine as head nurse in charge.

I have to admit though, I’m kind of over it. I want my kiddos healthy and back in school. Like now.

I really can’t complain though. Thankfully the only symptom is a lingering fever, and for anyone who’s a mom of little ones, there is something about having your kids home sick from school – they become your babies again with lots of snuggles on the couch in front of the television or in your bed. I’m actually loving that part. It gives me a great excuse to be lazy. But I’m not so sure if that’s a good thing or not (don’t look now, but the laundry pile is getting pretty scary).
