Round 8 & Ear Infection

I am posting today primarily because this blog is my homepage and I cannot bear to look at that depressing picture of myself anymore. This post will push the photo far enough down the page that I don't have to keep seeing it.

So, Round 8 started yesterday. I'm hooked up to the pump until tomorrow. I feel pretty crummy but Jude distracted me last night with a nasty earache. He was up several times with severe pain in his ear, but this morning he seems fully recovered.

Ben's parents are here this week to help with things while I rest. I am always amused and pleased to have his mom here because it is her great pleasure to do laundry and generally get things in order. My house always looks much better when she heads home.

I'm glad you're getting help this week. I hope the extra rest now will improve the likelihood of a better "good" week next week.

Your older two boys are about ten years younger than my younger two. So, let me share with you the fun I've been having with mine (and a glimpse of your life to come). I like to read what the boys are working on in school. In the past few months I have had the reason to re-read Romeo and Juliet, Wuthering Heights, Silas Marner, The Fall of the House of Usher, Of Mice and Men, To Kill a Mockingbird, plus more. None were on my reading list, but I've enjoyed them all. I can't wait until next quarter. I think Jane Eyre and Othello are coming up soon. Take heart; your Candyland days won't last forever--and in the meantime enjoy the snuggles while they're still interested.
