Today was a sick day for Caleb and Brandi and therefore mom. Both came down with a stomach bug, Caleb having the worst of it from midnight to 5 am. Brandi is also sick with a cold on top of this stomach thing. I feel so bad for them. Annika and Camryn also stayed home with mom today. Brandi ended up needing a doctor's appointment and was given a prescription for Claritin-D. Other than that rest and sleep are today's orders. She has lost 6 pounds this weekend from being sick.
Here are a few things I'm thankful for today:
1. A stocked pantry with Gatorade, crackers, and chicken noodle soup.
2. Great colleagues who take care of my "other 16" while I'm out the classroom.
3. Time to snuggle up with my kids.
In other news, Samantha's rescheduled game is a wash out due to today's dreary overcast rainy weather.
Supper is a pot of beef vegetable soup. I had all the fixings on hand for that as well and since peeling potatoes didn't seem like a very time-effective strategy for me today I just emptied a bag of "Simply Potatoes" hashbrowns that I got on sale for $.40 into the pot.
For now, I'll be washing blankets and disinfecting everything in the house!
