Last night was the school Christmas program. Some 4th graders get parts, 3rd graders have to sing in the choir, and kindergarteners get to sing at the intermission. Maria, being in third grade, was in the choir, but helped conduct a song at the end that had three parts going on at once. And Sam sang at the intermission - since he is part of Kinder PAWS during the school day he sang with his kindergarten friends during the day program and they let him also sing at the evening program. I was kind of surprised, but he really wanted to do it and did a good job.
This morning Maria got up with a terrible cough and when she coughed so hard she threw up I knew neither one of us was making it to school today. Bad timing for me, since I was out yesterday while attending a professional development workshop in Columbus. But we got things organized and I had Maria at the Dr. by 7:30 this morning. Now she's on an antibiotic and some strong cough medicine (apparently it has a narcotic in it so no driving or operating heavy machinery for her), and hopefully will be feeling better soon. We've had such a healthy school year so far - no one has missed sue to illness (except for Sam's fall, concussion, and hospital stay), so we knew it would hit sooner or later. Now we just hope it stops with Maria and no one else gets it!

Congratulation on the restraint. Only one exclamation point :-)
