World's Worst Mom Award

I get the award for World's Worst Mom this week.  It was a crazy busy week, and Friday was the busiest day of all.  Ryan woke up with a fever, but I was suppose to cook pancakes at Tyson's class, help run a booth at Buddy Field Day, and I was in charge of Justin's party which was with the whole first grade!  Jeff was out of town, and all of my friends were also helping out, so I gave him some Advil and we headed up to the school.  All of the parties went well, and Emily also helped with Buddy Field day so she helped me with Ryan and Abigail.  By the end of the day Ryan was not feeling well again.  He fell asleep on the way home, and when he woke up at 5:00 he had a fever of 102 degrees.  He said his throat hurt so I looked in his mouth.  One tonsil was almost completely white, and they were touching each other in the back of his throat.  I took him up to urgent care and they checked his ears first and said he had an ear infection.  I told them I was pretty sure he had strep too.  He took one look in his mouth and said, "Yea, I am pretty sure he has strep also."  While we were on our way home from getting his prescription filled Emily called and said Justin is throwing up all over and he his half asleep and we can't get him to use a pan.  When I got home found out she was not exaggerating.  It was on both ends of the couch and all over the floor.  I had given them Hawaiian punch for lunch, unfortunately red does not come out easily.  Jeff came home about 10:30 at night and we were barely finishing scriptures because I had not had time to get them to bed.  Next year I will not volunteer for so much and I will make sure I delegate enough so if I have a sick child I can call in sick and still have everything run smoothly.

On a happier note, Ryan had his preschool program, and we have some fantastic videos of it.  If I can get them to down load.  Tyson did great in the talent show, I may have a video of that later.

I couldn't figure out how to download to this post, but here is a great picture of Justin with his teacher.  I think the preschool posts are by themselves, I hope you enjoy.
