We're playing a game ...

how many times can we get sick in a 12 month period!!??! I can't even begin to tell you how many times we have been sick in the last 4 months. I think we have all gotten some form of the flu at least 3 or 4 times each - that just doesn't seem normal, does it?! Is anyone else experiencing sickness like this? On Thursday night I looked at Ethan and I could just tell in his EYES, that he was sick. He tends to say he's not sick, even when he is sick. He doesn't like to admit he doesn't feel well until it's plainly obvious (like throwing up or something). Anyways, I asked him if he wasn't feeling well, and he said "no, I'm just really really tired." but then Clint was playing some video game with him and called to me while I was exercising that he had a really high fever and was crying. And sure enough he did have a super high fever, and a bad headache. Luckily THIS time, he didn't throw up though. I find that the most difficult since kids don't know to throw up in a bucket or something, and so it just tends to get over EVERYTHING and anything, and you have to disinfect and do bzillion loads of laundry for days. So I'm grateful whatever flu like sympton he has, it hasn't involved the throwing up part. But I'm sad to know that he isn't feeling well ... AGAIN. Hopefully these germs will fade away from our home soon!!
