Toasted bagels with cream cheese breakfast, kids loved them, change in routine slowed everything down, almost late to daycare. Worked 9 hours putting me a couple ahead for week. Helped Ashley with homework, Lesa helped Dillan with his: reading, math, spelling. Baths for all kids.

I’m MS-tired. Dillan’s teacher sent message scolding me for letting Dillan use computer to do math. After explaining he used brain for homework and only doing extra flash card math she thanked me. More homework tonight, Ashley too. We played Sum Swamp game with Dillan and Ashley.

Ran late this morning. Rained / stormed all day, snow forecast tonight. Dillan struggling with homework again; helped him with math, found online addition flash card game. He can’t add single digit numbers but class way beyond that skill level. Ashley read 2nd grade book to Lesa!

Good on time all week; everyone tired though. Roads fine, yard snow-covered, slick. Dillan had tons of homework, thankfully Lesa has patience to help him. I helped Ashley who had fair amount but not like Dillan. Big kids wanted showers instead of baths. Still sick, hanging tough.

Left early, picked up Father-Daughter Dance pictures, turned out good. Rained, sleeted, snowed all day. Lots of flooding, 2 inches snow expected. Kids hyper, difficult getting them to focus on homework, getting ready for bed. I’m this side of being really sick, most likely strep.
