Still sick

Still laying low with all our bugs around here. The school schedule was pretty drawn out today with lots of breaks, and much of it was done all snuggled together under piles of blankets. My kinda school! ;O) I couldn't think of any reason why learning how to count by 10's and 5's couldn't be done all snuggled up. Plus our regular counting regime, reading time, reciting the days of the week, months of the year (they've almost got all of the months down now!), etc. all happened cuddled under a half-dozen blankets in one of the kids' rooms. School is much nicer when we're all so cozy, though I nearly lost my voice several times today from overuse. Germies abound at the Fisher house these last few days. Aleksa is starting to cough too, but Adam has avoided it so far.

John is in rough shape too. He has excruciating knots in his back. We had a role-reversal tonight and the kids all tucked Papa in instead of him tucking everyone else in! Poor guy.

I let the kids pick what their afternoon snack would be today. I expected them to say cookies since we have some yummy peanutbutter cookies from Grandma sitting on the counter. But instead, they all wanted apples. Weird.

Anyway, sorry. Y'all don't want to read about our aches and pains or apple-snacks. Not a whole lot else happening here that is blog-worthy as you can see!
