Day four of the flu, two hours post ibuprofen. Surely it will break soon. Logan will miss his field trip tomorrow, family reading night, and the book fair. Fortunately he has had a few moments of clarity. The fever will come down just enough that he can wrestle the dog, dump out all the Legos, or yell at his sister. Then with the blink of an eye he's curled up under a blanket, half asleep, shaking like a leaf.

The boy is still sick, sick, sick. A sick boy does not make a hungry boy either. Now we try our hardest to maintain, but he's losing weight he can't afford to lose. The boy and the girl now officially weigh the same. This is a problem.

I send her to the babysitter's and the sitter puts her to work. What a helper!

We had to quarantine Logan today - he's definitely got the flu. He has hardly been sick the past couple of years - since we started eating clean. Today he told me, "I feel like I've never been this sick in my whole life."

He also fell asleep playing the Wii! I was putting laundry away and when I came back he was curled up asleep with the nunchuck still in his hand.

So that's day 2 of the flu, hope it doesn't last too much longer!

Sick. Cough, sore throat & fever makes for a very grumpy kiddo.
