An update...

This week has been crazy. All four kids and the one husband have ALL had awful colds. I don't know if it's only God's mercy or a little due to my new addiction to Airborne, but thankfully I have been spared.

Today I'm taking Lily and Colby to the gallery for their art classes. Lily is making the most awesome sculptures in this class! I can't wait for her pieces to come home. Colby seems to be enjoying his class, but he doesn't seem as into it this semester. I think he misses his teacher, Miss Sabina. He had her 3 semesters in a row.

Landry is about to drive me to distraction...bless her pointed head. I'm praying, pleading, begging that she will be "less two-years-old" and all that it means, by April -- when she turns 3. The kid just knows how to get into EVERYTHING...and does! Aack! Good thing she is so very cute. Exhibit A:


I think part of my problem is everyone has cabin fever. I hate February for just that reason. You've been cooped up in the house for 8-10 weeks by now, and everybody is starting to go nuts for lack of exercise and sunshine. And Valentine's Day adds to the issue. Who in the heck came up with the idea we should all eat sugar and chocolate and then still be stuck in the house? My kids were jumping off the walls! Ugh. Next year, carrot sticks and melatonin tablets for Valentine's Day treats. That's what I say. :)
