Dang pigs!

Well, since Wednesday we have been home with the piggy flu. Early Wednesday morning Kade woke up with a 103 temp, sreaming...scared us out of our minds. I immediately called in for a sub and took him to see the doc. He swabbed his nose and sure enough it was the flu. GREAT!
I have been a sanitizing maniac at my school. I lysol after every class leaves and no kid enters without hand sanitizer from me. Guess they aren't doing the same in the world of Pre-K.
I guess I can say that luckily my child has a history of coughing and asthmatic symptoms, otherwise he would not have been given tamiflu. So we have been on meds since Wednesday, the humidifier is going non-stop and I am filling him full of liquids. You wouldn't even know he was sick b/c he is just as happy as can be. Friday and today I had him outside in the fresh air and I think that was the best thing for him! He is cleared to go back to school on Monday, but Mike is going to stay with him one more day. It's been great staying at home with him. We have completely vegged out for four days straight and I have loved it. Sometimes we watched tv together, other times he wanted to be in his room drawing and watching "his shows". On Thursday he told me that if I wanted to come in to his playroom, I needed to sign in on the door. WHAT???? He has a dry erase board on his door and to enter you must sign in. OKAY little guy! Whatever you say! I am thankful to have my job as a teacher, but man, what I wouldn't give to be able to stay home with this fella on a regular basis! He's my love!

I am relieved that he is doing better and that I will have him well for his awesome birthday party next Sunday. Knock on wood, but it looks like the weather is going to be great.

Oh and before I sign off...Hook 'em!!!!! Way to go Colt!
