sickies

the two older kids had this bug over the weekend, but maddux came down with it today.  i knew something wasn't right when he was laying his face on the couch while standing next to me.  the weird part was that when i got up off the couch, he didn't move.  i would call maddux my second skin, but he likes to be closer than that.  madelyn has even commented that he is going to "be in big trouble when the new baby comes" because he will have to share me.

this was a 'good' illness in my mind because it didn't bother the kids more than being tired (and the boys had a few days of very unfortunate diapers).  all three just took naps and rested on the couch while i had some super productive time.  there were no fevers, no coughing, etc.  it still broke my heart to see them so unlike themselves.  at least it only lasted two or three days.  love.
