Sickness Hits!

It’s been a few days, I know. The boys have been sick. Ugh. ‘G’ got sick early Friday morning and missed school. Then ‘K’ got sick Saturday. They both have all the symptoms of the flu. So all weekend it was grumbling and groaning from the 2 of them.
On Monday, ‘G’s class was supposed to be celebrating his birthday (since it falls in the summer, not during the school year). He was feeling ok Sunday evening, so I went ahead and made the cupcakes he wanted to take into class. Monday morning rolls around…and he’s back to not feeling good. I took his temperature and he was stil running a low grade fever. So I kept him home.
Now today. I got him up this morning, thinking he was going to school…and again he start complaining…about his stomach hurting. So I kept him home. I should have sent him to school. An hour later he was feeling fine - bugging ‘K’ (who is still quite sick), moping from room to room because he’s bored, and he kept asking me if he could go outside.
So the cupcakes have waited 2 days and their still here. Tomorrow is the class field trip to Empire Mine. So they won’t be at school. So no cupcakes tomorrow, either. Well, we figured by Thursday they’d become a bit stale, and even if they weren’t, I didn’t want to send cupcakes to school that are going on 4 days old. So now there for us to snack on…not like I need the added temptation to put on more weight…lol.
‘K’ still sick and when he’s not sleeping, he’s crying/whining/complaining. He’s extemely stubborn and refuses to take Tylenol…and the times I have given it to him, he’s thrown it back up right away. I really hope he gets over this soon.
