Night Visitors

All of us in the Wright household are pretty much walking around like zombies, due to the unannounced visit last night of our 2 friends, Up and Chuck. They spent several hours with Kari Bou and then moved on to Rachel. Thankfully, they only stayed the night, taking their leave early this morning.

Actually, there's lots to be thankful for:

1. I have no digital pix to share with you from this experience.
2. Zekers was never affected by the visit.
3. Both girls are feeling better today, although Kari Bou is now spending quality time with another friend, Squirt.
4. Rachel happened to be sleeping in the bottom bunk last night, not the top!
5. Danny was home this time, and carried most of the clean-up, allowing me to simply give baths and dress and snuggle shivering sweethearts.
6. In the midst of everything, Zekers has been using his little potty with increasing frequency, and has managed to keep his diaper dry so far today!! ("Official" potty training begins Thursday)

And now - I get to indulge in something I've been wanting to do since Sunday morning . . . take a nap!!

Sounds like a bad case of tofu pancakes and green beans to me. Glad they are feeling better.

Moo-in-law

HEEYYYY! Tofu pancakes are the BEST!!!! Glad you can be thankful in all things. Most of us have trouble coming up with one or two things in a situation like that but you came up with a bunch! You are amazing! mm

sorry this had to happen on life group night, too. stinks.

hope everyone is feeling better and that you've had a little time to recover lost sleep.

Thank goodness, Zekers' bout wasn't too bad . . . he only vomited once, and none of the kids had really eaten anything much all day, so I guess it could have been much worse. I feel bad about the way things went down for Marissa last night with the childcare; the kiddos were all bummed not to be able to have her watch them (instead they were stuck with me!).

As for the tofu pancakes and green beans . . . that's nothing compared to the crazy things I eat at night before I go to bed. :-)
