Catching Sun

After New Years Day, my children have been at home with me quite a bit. The first week of January, E was home because the school was closed.  It was nice to have some one-on-one time with her - something we haven't had a chance to do since she was small. To be honest, we didn't do much. We watched a couple of movies, we coloured and went for big girl coffee at Starbucks. The other thing we did was we painted Sun Catchers.

I remember being her age (or maybe a bit older) and painting mine. The pack rat that I am, I probably still have it somewhere....

When the week was over, I found myself feeling a little bit guilty that K didn't have the same chance. And when I got to the daycare to pick her up on friday, her teacher told me that...THEY FOUND 3 CASES OF LICE!!!! Ew. Luckily K wasn't one of the 3. So I decided over the weekend, that I would keep her home. Monday was a slow day. We went for big girl coffee at starbucks and watched a movie. Tuesday, I kept her home, because she had her 3 year old check up at the doctor. Nothing special, but it seemed to take all morning. And then I got a call from the daycare. 3 more cases, and 2 teachers. So, I decided that she won't go for the rest of the week.
I just can't do the whole LICE thing. It just grosses me out. I mean, vomit, blood, snot - I don't mind, but lice....just the thought of it makes me itch.
In my spare time (when K and I are napping), I am working on improving my blog. I am also working on knitting a hat for my niece. And redoing the basement like I said.
Sunday night, J and I watched "I don't know how she does it". What a great premise for a movie. The movie itself was a bit....over the top, but at the end of the movie, J turned to me and said. Yep. She's you. I didn't agree with him (purely to not agree with him). But, I try. :)
