Got through the day!

Well, I made it through yesterday with two kids with ear infections, go figure at the same exact time. Hey, at least it happened after cmas! Olivia actually ended up down at the ER Monday night, cause hers always start to hurt at night and you have no other choice. Isn't it ironic after she just had Fri.-Mon. off already from school b/c of records day and MLK day and it's starts Monday night. For those of you that don't know she has tried since kindergarten to get a full school yr. of perfect attendance. Last yr. she missed 1.5 days with pink eye and now this year she missed 1/2 day on Tues. I wanted her to stay home but she wanted to go and ended up back home and slept the day away..................she worked so hard not to miss any days.

Logan has got to be the toughest kid I know. I've seen that boy take alot of hits and it not even startle him. This is twice now that he's had ear infections and not even let on. I had a feeling cause he started running a fever the past two days with his runny nose. I didn't know I was going to have such a hard time getting him to take the meds. I tried everything, holding him down (he would spit it out), put it in his drink and he wouldn't drink it! You can lead a horse to water but can't make him drink!! Finally tonight, he must have figured I wasn't going away and he didn't put up much of a fight and drank it..........a much happier mommy and boy we have now.

So the January blues are starting to catch up with me a little and I need to find something for our family to do. I always say Jan. & Feb. the two hardest months of the yr. to get through. What I wouldn't give for a nice warm beach vac. about right now! On the flip side to that, winter does allow me some reading time that I don't get much of during the summer. I just got done reading Hulk Hogan's Outside the Ring.........it's a pretty good book if you know about wrestling! I'm on to Sarah Palin's Going Rogue. I'll let you know when I'm done, what I think!
