I woke up around 3:30 this morning with the beginnings of the stomach flu. I wasn't sure how the day was going to shake out with me in bed and Chris in Virginia (the state, not the town), but thankfully, I have some very competent children. The five older ones managed to put three meals on the table and keep everyone fed and happy throughout the day. They did a great job and I am very proud of them. By late afternoon Emily & Evan also appeared to be succumbing to the illness as well. Thankfully, Chris gets home tonight.
Lest you think they had no fun today, I will include some pictures I found on my camera. Who knew magnets could be so fun?
Now, I have to include the next picture so you can see that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. This is my dad - taken in Gulf Shores a few years ago (I was sick then too - something about sticking magnetics all over you when Barb is sick....)
