Babbling Baby and a Dead Frog

Yesterday was a weird day. Haley stayed home from school AGAIN! She hasn't been to school since last Tues. She has been so sick but I suspected yesterday she was actually feeling good enough to go but was just milking it! Now of course little sister decided to follow in her big sisters foot step and now has a fever of 103.5 that only comes down to 102 with LOTS of medicine. She is so sick! She just lays on my lap and babbles incoherently! She doesn't know a lot of words so this is fairly funny to listen to. Baby, dogie, mommy, meow, eat, no no, kitty....etc, etc, strung with other such words in no order said over and over is pretty funny. So finally Avery is passed out asleep and the kids are watching a movie and I thought I would sneak in some much needed cleaning when what do I find? Our little frog that went missing last week! Haley has these two, no scratch that! I mean one little aquatic frog that swim around in a fish bowl, last week she went missing! She decided that living in water was not for her.... so yesterday I found the little dead petrified frog in MY room! GROSS!!!! It hoped all the way out of Haley's room down the hall and into my room. So to give Haley some closure I picked it up in a tissue we had a little frog funeral. I finally convinced Haley to flush it (she wanted to keep it in a baggie so she could keep her with her forever! Ewww, flushing was the way to go!) Dylan was not helping with the tears that were shed! He was standing by the handle of the toilet poised and read! Chanting FLUSH IT! FLUSH IT, little brothers...... what a pain! After days like these is it really any wonder why I am completely nuts!
