Tea, Toast and Toe Socks

We have been having a little rough patch the last month with lots of sniffles and sneezes around here. It seems like when your kid is in school, he brings home every little communal bug and lovingly (or not so much) shares it with the family. We have had at least one of us sick for the last month. Right now, it is a double whammy with Ethan & I. Austin had it 2 weeks ago and Aubrey 3 weeks ago.

I can't decide if it is a cold or a flu - headache, nasty cough and super fatigued, though Ethan is sporting a lovely fever. So, as we camp out on our living room couch, watching endless episodes of the "Pink Panther" - (yes, the vintage 1960s classic) we are snuggled up in our warmest blankies, jammies and of course my zany toe-socks (which were lovingly given to me by Dad for my birthday, thanks Dad!), sipping our mint tea and toast and wishing this misery would end so we can get back to life. The worst part is that Ethan is missing his first school Valentine's party today. No worries little guy, we are making our own party!
