Well, that's how we planned to start this week, at least.
It's my fault really...me, the mom...I'm the one who uttered the words, "We haven't been sick much at all this year." What was I thinking?
We arrived home Sunday night after a weekend of business travel with a very sick B and the other two not feeling all that great either. We spent half of Monday at the doctor and the rest of the day everyone slept (except Dad, of course). Tuesday the kids felt much better but I was down for the count. Wednesday, we rallied! Happy St. Patrick's Day. We did some schoolwork, practiced our music and crossed lots of things off our To-Do list. We were on a roll - but it was a short-lived roll. This morning, after coughing all night, B woke up feeling worse than ever. So today we spent the morning getting chest x-rays and going back to the doctor. Oh, and did I mention that the car is sick too. It died in the hospital parking lot this morning. Ironic...
So in many ways our week has been somewhat derailed. The "post-production" catch up here at the Rolf Academy has not happened yet.
But we have done some things that weren't on my list. We've measured medicine and read thermometers and helped take care of each other. We even got to see the BIG x-ray machine and a picture of the inside of B's chest and what his heart looks like and what his pneumonia looks like! Who knew!
So anyway, sometimes no matter what WE may plan, life brings something else and we just have to go with it. Today we have sunshine and for that we are thankful.
