mom got sick

I thought I was going to be able to avoid it, but the day that both the boys seemed healthy, I came down with a fever and body aches. Now it has traveled to my throat. However, I am so happy that I didn't have this while the boys needed me more than usual. I feel that is a major blessing! But if you call me, I may not answer the phone because it is painful to talk:)

I made the mistake of telling Parker that he couldn't have a bite of my cereal because it had germs. What was I thinking?! The boy already has food issues and now he is asking me constantly if his food has germs. How do I explain germs to an almost three year old? Geeesh!

In wonderful news, we added another blessing to our extended family this morning! Caleb Ryan was born to Lyndzie and Brandon and weighed in at 6 lbs 14oz and 19". Five hours of labor and two weeks early....lucky girl! Congrats to the two of you!
