Bad Sharing

We've been fighting the stomach flu since last Wednesday (which you might already know if we're fb friends :)). We thought we were in the clear and then Andrew came down with it. Two of us have yet to have it (and I'll admit I'm feeling pretty awful today) and it now more than ever just feels like a matter of time. It's hard to know what to keep doing and what to cancel - clearly it's a virulent flu (my dad and brother got it from exposure to us one evening).

There is something so wrong with the fact that I averaged the stomach flu every 5-10 years before kids and now it's 1-2x per year. My friends, that is a statistic that I never wanted to see change.

I'm tired and haven't had a good night of sleep in several days. The boys have been a bit (okay, a lot) out of sorts and we are ready to be well! We are fairly confident the stomach flu was contracted at school. So, hello, Monday, let's make it the best day that we can. :)

Oh Alaina! That's just horrible!! I hope you get some time to rest. The stomach flu has been going around day care as well, and we have yet to get it, but I know we are not out of the woods. Praying for some healing and peace today. I can't imagine how hard it is to watch 3 kids when you feel awful!
