Excitement for the week......

Poor Sarah got sick Monday evening with the stomach flu bug that's going around!  She threw up all over me and had to take a bath (and so did I!!!).  According to the other families who've fallen victim, it takes 1 to 2 days to pass to someone else so I'm waiting with baited breath.  Luckily this week the kids have Thursday and Friday off from school so if we can just get through TODAY until 3:30 we'll be good!!!!!!
Poor Sarah!!!! )o:

OK-- so, who do you think the next victim will be?

Nathan started sounding out words this week!  This was SO exciting.  He showed no interest in this before, and seemed to struggle with sounding out all the letters individually.  He also didn't seem to grasp the concept that letters together make a word.  In the past when I tried to help him learn words, he would only name individual letters.  The other day we were working on some homework involving 3-letter words (filling in the missing letters), and on his own he began sounding out each letter and then he said the words!!!!  I was SO excited and so was he!!!!

Sarah looks soooooooooooooo sad. It's no fun to be sick.

Hurrah for Nathan. Give him a BIG hug from Grandma. So many miracles.

Glad Emily's performance was wonderful. I wish I could have heard it. I know she sounded amazing!!!!!!

I think Nathan will be next.

And sad news about the sick, by the way, but GREAT JOB NATHAN! YAY! Too bad you're going to be the next to get sick.
