Did I mention how the only thing that my children are willing to share is illness? Well, now Mom and Dad both aren't feeling too good. Lucky us! Molly will not be going to school again tomorrow unless there is some amazing recovery by tomorrow morning and by the looks of her, the chances are slim to none. This stomach bug has hit our house pretty hard but luckily for us, the weather was nice enough that we could open the windows for a few minutes today to try and air the sickness out. Hopefully, there will be a yummy lunch on display tomorrow night. ☺
ps - Happy Valentine's Day!

Sick Day for Molly
Why is it that when we ask our children to share something, there is always a mass resistance that can escalate into an old fashioned melt down? Yet, when it comes to illness, they have no problem sharing at all.
Molly's little sister was the first one to have the stomach bug that is going through our house at the moment. She started feeling better and I was hopefully that she would be the only victim. Unfortunately, Molly started feeling sick last Friday. I thought that it may have been something else but, she got the worst case of it. Molly's little brother also started to get sick last Friday so we are a house of sickness at the moment.
Molly is really bummed because since tomorrow is Valentine's Day, she will miss the party at school. But she also realizes that with her absence, she will not be passing this illness on to her classmates. Good girl, Molly!
I had great plans for a fun Valentine's Day lunch, but it will have to wait until Molly is well enough to go back to school. Stay tuned!

Sick Day
Molly stayed home from school today. December 6th and her first sick day. Not too bad in my opinion considering the plethora of sickness that has already steamrolled through her school. All 3 of our kids were quite cuddly and clingy today so needless to say, not much was accomplished except lots of TLC from Mom. (Which was fine with me. ☺)
Tomorrow, Molly will be headed back to her first grade classroom. She started feeling better after a nap this afternoon and she's ready to get back to it. You may notice that two of the items are the same as yesterday because she only ate the waffle sandwiches and apples for lunch today.
Our main entrée is peanut butter and jelly on whole wheat. We've broken out the Christmas cookie cutters and decided to go with a snowman and tree.
Our fruit side is mandarin oranges. These will be a nice contrast to the peanut butter.
Our dairy side is Dannon Light and Fit strawberry yogurt. This will help her belly feel better after being sick.
Finally we have our trail mix of peanuts and raisins. Even if she only eats a little bit of this, it will help keep her appetite satisfied until she gets home.
