Imp's Art
We are all still very sick with mono. My husband is dragging himself to work (he works Sat. until 2) so I get to stay at home and relax... As much as you can relax with a 3 and 5 year old who are sick yet still have high energy levels.
I have mentioned before I don't like my kids watching much TV. Yeah, that goes out the window when I am sick. Yesterday we all watched TV ALL DAY LONG. Yes, my kids sat in front of the idiot box watching mom-approved television for hours and hours while Mommy watched cable news. Thank goodness for commercial free Nick Jr and Construction and Farming videos. I can't read to them because of my throat, severe constant headache, and cough and I don't have the energy to play with them, so they are getting babysat by the TV. Mom guilt and mono, what a great combo...
Anyway, today Imp wanted to cut paper and draw and he called me into the kitchen to show me a drawing of Mommy. Sick as I am I cracked up and ran to get my poor dusty neglected camera and took this photo. Oh my, that is exactly how I feel right now. Look at that frown! Oh, I love these two boys of mine.
Thanks for all of your kind supportive comments on my last post. I am taking your advice and taking it easy. I am just glad the kids are taking it in stride and doing pretty well, considering. Today I actually feel a tiny bit improved (I only feel 75% like I want to die), so good news!
