December 8th

Andy stayed home sick, but was healthy enough to be a fantastic big brother -- the three younger boys just love him, as do I!  We assembled the kids' gingerbread in the morning and played in the leaves before lunch.  I had four parent-teacher conferences in the afternoon.  Oh, I also folded nine loads of laundry and make waffles and cream for dinner.  Austin managed to come home at 10 pm.
