Love

We got the dreaded call from daycare today letting us know Everett had a fever and had to come home. Given the 24-hour rule for fevers, this means he can't go to school tomorrow. Aside from the fact that missing work again tomorrow and Monday for Amelia's holiday puts is much closer to joblessness, it also means we had to tell him he will miss his Valentine's Day party tomorrow. As you can imagine, this didn't sit well with him. Upon hearing this news, big sister jumped into action. She grabbed her Valentines she got today, let him go through them, and offered him any of the treats he wanted.  This kind of loving gesture is what makes having more than one child so special. You not only get to enjoy both of them, but you also get to see them enjoy each other. As a parent, I couldn't ask for anything more...other than a full time nanny... Or a maid....because those would be awwwwesome.
