Well, we’re trying to get back into the swing of things. Last week was MY spring break…this week we had the hour drive up to school on Monday again. The boys did fine. I felt I only did ok. The goal is to do much better next week, though I’m a bit overwhelmed with the amount of material I’m supposed to cover (again). I used to spend NINE WEEKS on the Animal kingdom when I taught High School. Now I get to cover this in one hour! Yikes!

We got back and Tuesday Alex started getting sick. Yesterday he actually fell asleep in my lap–if you know Alex at all you know that means he was SICK. He actually was acting fine, it was like his batteries just died. I was holding him and suddenly I realized he was leaning against me and out. Today he hasn’t acted as tired but his nose is running worse and we keep working on him to blow it. His eyes have started to water and he told me “Blow eyes” as he used the kleenex to wipe them.

Will’s spring break starts tomorrow (yes, on a Friday…yes, that annoys me. It seems the local schools got tired of people leaving early on Friday for vacation, so they just give Friday off too…and that really bugs me) and his break goes on all next week. Today I already started to hear “What are we going today, Mommy? Will you play with me?” We did arts and crafts and made a mess. Alex’s sickness (and me not feeling to great either) are preventing me from really planning some fun activites. We shall see.

So, that’s our exciting update…not much happening. It remains a cool, rainy spring here so we’re trying to avoid cabin fever as well…and hoping warm weather will come soon!
