Fireproof and sick kids

Brother is home sick today. He has the same croupy cough that everyone else seems to have. Because of the problems he had at birth, everything just goes to his lungs. Last night I woke up to him crying. He was actually part crying and part coughing. It scared me because he also was struggling to breath. He was gasping for breath, so I pulled out the trusty ol nebulizer and gave him a dose of medicine. He was at least able to sleep after that. I still heard him throughout the night just coughing and coughing. It was terrible, I felt so bad for the little guy.

Hunny has jury duty today. He wasn't to happy about it. He said he's was just put in a room for 2 hours just sitting there watching tv. He was able to watch a lovely video about jury duty and what is expected from you. He was able to come home for lunch and then had to be back at 1. Who knows when he will be home now.

Saturdays we try and all work together to get the house clean. The kids are in charge of their rooms. They also take turns unloading the dishwasher and vacuuming the floors. Last Sat while we were cleaning, instead of cleaning her room, Dada was in her room pretending to be a princess. And this is what she thinks a princess looks like. Notice the belt tied as a headband, and the comforter as a gown. I just laughed and laughed. I remember wrapping my blankets around me as a child and pretending I had the most beautiful ball gown on. It just brought back such memories for me that I had to grab my camera.

Fireproof was released on video yesterday. If you haven't seen this movie, you must rent it. It is one of my favorite movies. It's about a firefighter who's marriage is in trouble. http://www.fireproofthemovie.com/

Well I am off to make potato soup. I hope you have a great day!
