At 6:30, I laid back down waiting for my kids to start waking up. Jared came in the room first around 7:00--he was burning up (103 temp), I gave him some Tylenol and he crawled into my bed. Then Evan woke up--103 temp, also, so we made room for him in the bed. We all snuggled up as I read to them from Where the Sidewalk Ends. Next came Tyler (he slept in a whole 20 minutes--yahoo!)--no fever (double yahoo!--he did the fever thing the past few days) so he took over on reading duties as I got the coughing Anna up. Took her temp--101! I can tell it's going to be one of those days!
I suggested that his title should be "Nurse Tyler", but he chose "Assistant"--I'll take it, as long as he remains helpful!
P.S. I already miss you, Rob!

You poor thing! I'm so sorry your kids are sick and Rob's out of town. I am in the same boat- Paul left for CA last night and Ethan is still sick. Why do they always leave when the kids are sick?! You have it four times as bad as I do, though- I still only have one kid!! Hope you're all hanging in there!
I feel your pain! I just dropped Mike off at the airport. He is on his way to Buffalo (yea Buffalo in January!!) I hate those Japan trips. They always come back so tired. You have to be a single mom for another day or two. I hope your kiddies get better quick!!
