Ah, yes. School days, school days,Wow, get the Mini settled down and in bed (finally), jump on here to have some fun and there is no one here!!!You can tell she's back in school...she is catching EVERYTHING!!!
Catching colds and flu days.
Sneezing and coughing and sick, sick, sick.
My stomach hurts and I feel just "ick".
Both of my kids were home with a cold last week. Neither of them were really awful, but when DS has a sore/scratchy throat his stomach has to get in on the act, and he needs to sip liquids almost constantly to keep it under control. Since the school won't even let the kids have a bottle of water in the classrooms, he needs to be at home until things settle down. DD had a couple of nosebleeds this time, so I kept her out longer than I liked just to make sure she was past that, too. And since we're self-insured with a whopping great deductible, I'm not dropping a hundred bucks at the doctor's office just to get excuses that say, "These kids have colds." Fortunately, they are catching fewer of these things than they were.
