This weekend, Saige was supposed to play in her first basketball game, we were supposed to go spend the night with Colin, we were supposed to have a bunch of fun. Instead, we stayed home as the stomach flu took us out one by one. I am thankful that the weather closed school on Friday, as that gave me the morning off to be sick, rather than driving the bus while feeling like death. Since we have no bus subs, it worked out splendidly.
There are many benefits to having a large family. I love it most of the time. The downfall of a large family is that illness can last forever. It is honestly much better if we all get sick at once, rather than having it drag on and on. This time is the drag on. One person at a time getting sick for 2 days at a time makes it last for weeks. I am over it for sure! The kids were disappointed that we didn't get to take our little mini-vacation, but Colin is not sad that we didn't share our germs!
The girls were happy that they were not sick and could attend their cooking meeting, and their first model meeting practice. Also luckily, they have tomorrow off for the holiday. Hopefully by Tuesday, everyone will be well and we can do our week without any interference.
