Sick Day at home

Mountains, by Momo  (5 1/2 years old)

I made her this dress today to thank her for being brave.

The sick-bug has been through our household lately.  And today, one of our little ones stayed home while the other went to school.  This has happened once before two years ago.  But it was such an important milestone (since they usually do everything together), that it is still talked about as if it was yesterday.

It was our brave Claire who went to school solo two years ago, as well as today.  And in some ways, it was like a mini-date for Momo and me.  We went to an art-supply store, the bank, the bookstore, before coming home to do some creative projects.  We are sick, but we are not going to let that deter us!
