Weekly Recap 5/3-5/7

This week was a little bit disjointed.  My children were able to share the stomach flu like they share everything else, generously.  S8 started it in the middle of the night on Sunday night.  K13 followed at about 4am Monday morning.  We had a day of recovery on Tuesday before I got it and M5 joined me.  H11 wasn't feeling so well on Thursday morning but by Friday we were all in top form again. 

We spent the first part of the week doing quiet things that didn't require much energy and didn't require too much of me.

  2. Everyone gets sick in stages at our house. My kids spend time in bed surrounded by books when they get sick. Happy Mother's Day!

  6. I love that your "quiet activities" were still so educational! Those puzzles are wonderful and it's fun to see all your kids working together on them. Hope you all have a better week health-wise next week, but school-wise it looked like you still did plenty!
