The best part about living in a house with children is the wonder in their eyes as they make discoveries about the world; the sound of laughter when they are truly enjoying themselves; the countless hugs that they provide.

The worst part is that we share everything…especially the germs.  And man, did they give it to me big time this time.  And no, it is not allergies.  I’ve taken my Claritin and this thing laughed in it’s face.

You know it kicked me good if I chose bed over my small group last night.  Of course mom helped with that one by returning to the house about 30 minutes past start time.  But still.
