A couple of weeks ago a reporter from Newsweek came to our church to interview some of us for an online piece on Iowans in preparation for the caucuses. Roy and I were army-volunteered to interview (thanks Sarah!), but thankfully we made it to the cutting -room floor.
The video prominently features our pastor, Richard Marsceau. It also happens to show lots of our friends at church, plus Sarah holding David, and me holding Zoe. The reporter told me my little baby was so cute, but I had to correct her - "She's my niece!"

Whiners on Parade
Sick, sick, sick! Everyone in my house is sick, except me! Could it be a flu shot? Nope, only Lily got one of those, and she was vomitus muchus yesterday. Papa Bob watched her for us, which consisted of snuggling on the couch most of the afternoon. Roy is very ill today, and Aaron seems to be hopping on board too. Me? Nope! I think it's all the Airborne I've been cramming down my throat. I got the Target/generic brand, which just isn't as tasty, but I've been drinking it anyway. Get away Sickies, eww! And wash your hands WITH soap!
So, everyone except Mommy is sick. What does that mean? WHINERS ON PARADE. Lily was sick yesterday, so Roy kept her home today. Lily was feeling better today, but Daddy wasn't. When I called to check on Lily, she said there was nothing to do, and Daddy wouldn't play any games with her. The guilt trip earned her a quick game of Candyland before Daddy said it was naptime (for both of them). I got an email from him this afternoon that said, "I just want someone to take care of me." WAAH, you're a grown up! He went up to bed at 6:00 p.m.
Since no one was hungry except me, I ordered a delicious pizza with
mushrooms, ham, black olives, and green olives - YUM!! The other
members of my family are boring pepperoni-pizza only people. Eww.
Aaron and Lily are on the couch fighting over who gets to pick the TV show. Aaron has a temp now, but no upset stomach - yet. Lily is still Miss Whiney-pants because she feels better but not 100%. They're both trying to eat some ramen noodles and/or Jello. Eww. Is it possible to whine and eat at the same time? YES IT IS.
I'm counting the minutes until bedtime.
