I'm pausing just long enough from wiping runny noses and doing school to post. Jude and Lila both have ear infections right now, Micah has a cough, I've had a cold since Christmas day and it's just January 6. Winter still has a while to go.

With snow in the forecast off and on for the next week, we aren't going to be upset over having to stay in. Apart from soccer and church I'm trying to keep Jude and Lila in as much as possible so they can rest and fight off their bad colds. Lots of vitamin C is being taken, hot tea is being consumed, vaporizers are running, and hands are chapped from being washed so much. Hopefully the kids will feel better soon and we can enjoy the snow that is yet to come.

In the meantime, I must take a Clorox wipe to the keyboard, make some hot tea, wipe some more runny noses, finish what school we can do, and maybe settle in for a kids movie. Ahh, don't cha just love winter!
