sick

I so dislike being sick.  Mia has been sick and she decided to be kind and share with me.  Ugh.  I spent the last 24 hours basically asleep.  Thank goodness Tom was able to come home early yesterday and help out with the kids.  They watched way too much t.v. yesterday but it allowed me to sleep.  We've been better about the t.v. today and have even managed to get outside.  I'm building raised beds in my garden.  I had two that needed weed cloth and dirt.  So happy I managed to get those filled.  Now if I could just summon the energy I need to move my strawberries into the one.

It is a beautiful spring day here.  I wish I didn't feel so crummy.  I want to be out mowing the lawn and working around the yard.  I guess it will have to wait until next weekend.

The kids are doing well in spite of Mia having been sick.  She loves to sit and draw with her crayons.  Funny, because that was never something Bear liked to do.  He likes playing with his trains and cars and stuff but rarely drawing or coloring.  I love the differences in the two kids.  They are fascinating to watch. Bear is my crazy clown that loves to make people laugh.  Mia is my snuggle bug.  She has recently decided that books are wonderful.  That is one area that the kids are very much alike.  They will both fall asleep cuddled up with a book. 

Well, I should see if I can get something in these two for lunch.
