Sis just turned to me, "We're sick."
"Yes, you are."
"We'll have to stay home from school."
School isn't for 5 days so I assured her we were going to do everything we could to get both Bud and Sis over the sniffles by then. But it was touching and bittersweet to see her little face register that she was, indeed, under the weather. I'm not sure they've ever put a name to being sick before, even though they've had enough colds.
Let's hope it's a rare occurrence. And not just because I want them to go to school, but because they want to go to school.
