When I got to work this morning, I walked in the door & was greeted by a phone call from Samuel's school nurse. She said he was in the office & had been there about 20 minutes, saying his tummy hurt. I talked to him & then to her again and told them to call me back about 10:00 if he still felt bad then. I thought it was odd for him to say he was sick considering he was perfectly fine when I dropped him off at 7:50. Well... 10:20 rolled around & the nurse called back. She said that Samuel's teacher said he'd been in the bathroom off & on ever since our last phone call & kept complaining that he felt bad. I called a sub & left. When I got there, the nurse said she'd been sending kids home right & left with a stomach virus. Oh boy....
We came home & Samuel rested the rest of the day in front of the TV. I spent the day doing dishes, laundry, making our menu for the next week & planning the grocery list for tonight's shopping trip, planning Samuel & Sarah's class Christmas parties and writing up the letter that the teachers will send home w/ the students. You know..just the usual busy work stuff.
Through the course of the day, Samuel's sick tummy never turned into anything & he seems 100% better tonight so he'll go back to school tomorrow.
Tonight I got online & ordered almost all of the rest of the kids' Christmas gifts. I only have a few things left to buy for them and then we get to start on the relatives that we shop for (which isn't many).
Ahhh....it's been a full day, but a good one.
