Lately: Some Magic, Soccer and a Sick Boy


This April has been all about being sick! We are on our third illness so far and have spent so much time cooped up inside. Henry caught Will's virus which is characterized by a long-lasting, high fever (102-105). It is a doozy! Henry spends much of the day on the sofa watching shows, like this.


Last week, when Will was sick, Henry got to go on a field trip to the Butterfly Center at the science museum. I was so disappointed I couldn't help chaperone but I know Henry had a great time with his friends!



Last week, we had a good 3 1/2 days when everyone was healthy (we went camping!). We also tried out Will's new handcuffs and chains.


Will is Harry Houdini for his Living Museum project. 


Cutest magician!


And so talented! Look how fast he got out of those chains!


Henry was supposed to be the student of the day on Monday, so we worked on this poster last week to showcase all of his favorite things: family and friends, cooking, hiking and camping, zoos and museums, and playing soccer. We had it all ready to go but he missed his "Me Monday." He'll get his special day next week, for sure!



We also made it to soccer on Saturday morning. Here is Henry's team with Daddy as coach.


Run, Henry, run!


And back to this week. Henry mostly feels crummy until his medicine kicks in, and then he feels pretty normal. He asked to work on Hooked on Phonics one day and was so excited to finish Kindergarten Level 2.


So proud of my good little reader. He's ready for First Grade Level 1!


And we are ready to have everyone in our house healthy again!
