The flu made an uninvited visit to Carter this past week. Because of this visitor we haven't been able to participate in a few of our favorite Christmas events. The most unfortunate missed event was the Kindergarten Christmas concert. This is something Carter had been practicing for and looking forward to for months. When he found out he had missed the performance his big brown eyes filled with crocodile tears. I told him it was OK if he felt like crying because I did too. So we both sat on the couch and had a little cry. It was so hard to see him so disappointed. He told me it wasn't fun to be sick at Christmas because you miss out on everything fun. Poor guy! It took him a few days but the flu has finally passed. Unfortunately he is still a little heart broken about the concert.
Carter's friends Wyatt and Drew brought him his balloon because they knew how disappointed he was about missing the Christmas celebrations.
Now Brady has come down with a touch of a cold. He walks around the house coughing into his arm. We have all nicknamed him "the germ". Hopefully all the sickness will pass in time for Christmas to arrive.

Oh poor Carter! I missed the last week of school {the most fun in the year} in fourth grade... how nice that his friends came by with that balloon! And a side note - how polite of Brady to cough into his arm and not his hand!

Carson was sick the last week of school as well, with ear and eye infections. no flu YET!! PLEASE NO FLU! Merry Christmas you guys, we love you and miss you!

Hello,
I recently came across your blog and wanted to take a moment of your time to inquire about any guest posting opportunities that you may have on your blog. I've written an informational and educational article on the importance of early childhood education that I believe your readers of (http://thesaunderschronicles.blogspot.com/) would be interested in.
Thank you in advance for your time and I look forward to hearing back from you.
