Day 114

Today is Friday. It rained most of the day. I’ll post a video of it at the end. For lunch my oldest son ate pickles right out of the jar. And Bonnie took most of the kids for a walk in the rain to pick up a cake for our youngest birthday on Day 115.

This made me dry heave.

After their walk, the kids that went with Bonnie got back and quickly got out of their wet clothes and into their dry bath robes and all cuddled in one of their beds to stay warm.

After dinner, the kids watched a terrible cartoon movie while I made cookies downstairs. Bonnie played monopoly with them. The night would not be complete unless we had some drama. And a minute before we were about to send the kids to bed, our youngest slipped and fell on his chin.

When it was obvious to the other kids that their youngest brother needed stitches, they mobilized and helped out socks and shoes on him, and a jacket. They were really worried, and our oldest was crying because she knew what he was about to go through. As I strapped him in to the car seat he reassured me that he’d be ok.

He said he’d be fine.

They got home 4 hours and two stitches later.
