Taking a Sick Day...

I went to get Lilly up this morning for another busy day and she was NOT FEELING WELL. She had a fever to say the least, and a tiny squeak for a voice. So, we called preschool to say she would be a no show, called the doc's office for an appt. and called Mac's school to cancel my art class. (Thank goodness I got two of the art classes done yesterday before she got sick!) Anyhow, she had a positive strep test and an ear infection. So antibiotics, lots of fluids and lots of snuggling and rest is on the agenda for the next few days. It's amazing how fast your kids can get sick. She was fine all day yesterday- she went with me to both art classes and all of my other running around's that had to get done. I now worry that we may have exposed people to Strep...

I took advantage of having to stay at home this afternoon. I did a lot of cleaning, laundry etc. I even got Grandpa Tex's room ready for him. He will be here in ONE WEEK! We are soo excited, but I sure hope the rest of us don't get sick too.
I also realized that there are only 15 days till Christmas, so I did some wrapping while my princess napped.
Pat took this picture last night of Mac reading a bed-time story to his 'lil sis... so sweet!
If Momma B sees this, I hope it brings back great memories of her kiddo's. The rocking chair belongs to her. It was her daughter's chair. It's on loan to us for awhile...
