CLEANING YOUR HOUSE WHILE YOUR KIDS ARE STILL GROWING IS LIKE SHOVELING THE WALK BEFORE IT'S STOPPED SNOWING. ~dayspring~
It should be another quiet day today. The girls are slowly getting better. They are actually starting to fight with each other so that's a good sign, sort of.
Ed took the boys to a men's breakfast and I believe the boys will be playing flag football. I don't think Ed will attempt it but we will see.
Another Rainy day today. Hopefully, soon, this rain will turn to snow so we can go out sledding and have some fun.
Going to walk on the treadmill now. ...
Have a fun day!

Today is going to be a quiet day. It's just me and 3 kids. Sickness is still around and everyone is tired.
Last night I went to a ladies missions banquet. It was so nice to sit there and have people talk to you and laugh. Everyone was so down to earth but also you could see the love of Jesus in there. The missionary who spoke is a survivor of breast cancer. She has a wonderful spirit about her. She has used her cancer in a good way by sharing the gospel.
Time to get moving ... Have a nice day.

Last night after church Katie came in "dragging" saying her head hurt. You guessed it! She has a fever today and is coughing. Becca wants to sleep in because her head hurts. And most of all, my head hurts because my washer broke again, and money is flying out the window before it even gets here!
One good thing, I had a nice dark chocolate candy bar last night...Yum! That will help any woman feel better. ~smile~
Ana was very hot last night. Actually felt like she was burning. I couldn't get her to take her tylenol (She clamps her mouth shut), or even a sip of her drink but she slept on and woke up cool. She is playing and coloring, ate and drank a little bit, but I can tell she doesn't feel good. She is getting warm again. I'm sure it will be a few days until she's better.
Tom and I will be working on his lapbooking today. Ben and Becca are doing their regular school work and Katie is going to do her phonics and math.
It has been raining since last night and I was just informed that Tom's bedroom ceiling is leaking. The other day our bathroom ceiling was leaking. Would be nice if money leaked from the ceiling. LOL!!!!
Ed can't be contacted because he was called in for jury duty. Hopefully this isn't going to take long. $9.00 a day just won't make it around here.
I'm going to get moving now. Have a great day.
Well, Ana is sick. She was playing with her play-doh last night and fell asleep. She has a fever and feels yucky. She is watching tv, though. We are watching 'Race to Witch Mountain' which is pretty good. (Some of us watched it last night)
This is a busy week so sickness is the last thing on my mind. Oh well, we'll deal with it, as we always do.
You can click on Noah's picture on the right of this blog to get his mom's blog. He is extremely sick and they do not know what is happening.
Thanks so much!!
Tom made these crafts for his Henry VIII lapbook.

I had Tom make the house to flip open just in case he does some writing on Tudor homes.
We made this quite a long time ago and had it posted on dltk's site.
