Started from the bottom

"Started from the bottom now we're here ...
Started from the bottom we're still here ...
Started from the bottom and we'll always be here ... "

This version of the Drake song has been re-purposed by little G and her friends.  Apparently they have all been in the bottom row of the classroom photo -every single year since kindergarten. So they updated the song to reflect this.

How cool is that, for 10 and 11year old girls.  Wait we're talking Drake.  Should I be worried instead?

Guess what flu in with November?

Yeah. Great.

Poor boy, he woke up on Saturday morning - Halloween morning - with a sore stomach, thinking it was hunger pains.

I made him breakfast, then took the girl to dance class, leaving the boy with his Dad.

A 101 deg. fever and a trip to the bathroom to "throw the ball" (our code word for throwing something else), nixed the evening festivities with his friends. "This sucks. It's the worst day ever!".

The girlie went out with her Dad last night. Trick or treating as Cinderella, and I must admit she looked like quite the princess.

And then this morning, the princess had a sore tummy. And a fever of 100. "Mommy, I just want the sick to go away."

After spending most of the day with both kiddies, feeling helpless, I went to get groceries.

And the girlie threw the ball. Twice.

Nice of me to leave the fun stuff to their Dad, eh?

So thanks, November. Things better get better.
