Day 1497. This morning the boys were up bright and early again, at 7:15, which is when we have to get up during the week. I got up to take care of them, even though I was really tired. Thankfully the worst of the cough has subsided now, so that this was the second night where I was able to sleep.

Day 1496. You appreciate the weekend so much more, when you have to get up early during the week. This morning it was Emmy who was the first one up an hour later than when we have been getting up. It was 8:15. Sammy was up right away as well, and it didn't take long for Tammy to wake up. I got up and opened all the curtains and gave them what they needed.

Day 1495. Yesterday I took Sammy to kindergarten on his day 4. In the afternoon I had students. Randy took the kids right outside so they could run their scooters, but they didn't stay long. Emmy was the last one to get sick, and he's still the most effected of the kids. Sammy still coughs a little, while Tammy is over it. Randy now not only has a cough but his eyes are red and secreting.
