Yay! School is back in session and we can get back to our somewhat normal routines. I say some what normal because, as I am sure with most of you, it is never NORMAL.
First day of school was a success. Everyone up, dressed, breakfast eaten, lunches made and out the door on time. :) The day went by pretty uneventful.....for me anyway.
The kids were glad to be back to school.
Jake on the other hand...not so much. He on the first day started to get sick. He never gets sick....I mean really sick....like toss your cookies sick. Very RARELY anyway. He was so tired and worn out that he didnt even remember to tell me about being selected for Safety Patrol.
My poor buddyman missed the next two days of school. He was so anxious to get back because he had made Safety Patrol. He was so proud of being a S.P
He could not keep anything in his stomach. Poor guy, then has to be shuffled to his dad's then back home. In the evening he was feeling better and he decided it would be ok for him to have Dr. Pepper and a brownie. Geesh! Um....It didnt stay in his belly too long. ....go figure (eye roll)...
Still feeling weak Wed. morning I kept him home so I could get something to stay in his stomach. He was so hungry and was glad when he could finally eat something more than crackers. He was careful to take it slow. He couldnt resis telling us that Dr. Pepper and brownie was the best thing to throw-up though. EEEEEWWWWW GROSSSSSSSS!!!!TMI exclaimed his sister. Ugh, what boys will say to make their sisters queasy and their moms cringe. :)
ParkerDude has done real well. Homework has not started for him yet. He will get into that routine when he comes back his next week.
Brianna got to see and visit her friends the first day. Then she was off to Miami Children's Hospital for surgery. She came through just fine :)"Praise the Lord and thank you for blessing sweet Brianna once again" She will be home bound schooled at the hospital and her mom's for a good month or so. :( We all already miss her and cant wait till we can visit.
Peyton....Oh the spirit she has. So peppy and unbridled. We tend not to get many words in until her excitement has wained alittle. :) She is fun to listen to, if you can keep attention for long periods of time. She gives you blow by blow(one of the many things I love about her)...not a summary. She has missed my ride a couple times. Soon she will have to pay a fare if it continues. She is well aware of this, as last year she provided me with coffee money :) (oh, coffee...I need coffee....)
So this week I will consider...getting back into the swing of things. Next week should flow better. I sure do hope so anyway.
