sickness

Meant for it, Strep Saga, and other Thoughts

I mentioned that we started a homeschool co-op last week. I didn’t mention that I get to help my sister teach preschool science at the co-op! If anyone has been reading my blog since 2011, you’ve seen my little sister grow up.

We used to play school, and she would even play school with Jimmy. She is meant to do this and she’s great at it. I love, love, love seeing my sister succeed and fulfill her dreams.

Standing in the back of the classroom and watching Hannah do her thing was like a full circle moment for me. All those times we would pull out workbooks and sit behind TV trays and learn and play came rushing back. (more…)

Good and Hard

Something Sadie learned recently is that you can feel two emotions at once. She was so impressed with this revelation that she told me multiple times “You can be happy and sad at the same time!”

This week has been good and hard. We had us a day yesterday. Mordecai has had a goopy eye since being sick and I finally decided to call his pediatrician to see what I should do about it. They wanted to check him out, so we went to the doctor’s office and found out he has an eye and ear infection. A twofer 😂
