Job Description

My Job Description today is as follows: Wipe noses & butts/change diapers, Movie Director (change movies), timer/potty reminder, story teller, craft teacher, Launderer, cook, recliner/chair (somehow I'm better than the couch). It's not a bad job, I'm actually ok with it. A lil stressful at times, but nothing like the feeling of being needed.

It was inevitable but McKenna now has Tyler's same cold. It started yesterday so we opted out of church for the day as to prevent spreading it, we've shared enough with the world. It's ok to watch movie after movie when your kid is sick and miserable right? Whatever makes her happy, her mind occupied and maybe she'll get this whole tv watching thing out of her blood...Right? :)

We started getting the Friend Magazine in January but didn't really realize the wonderful stuff that's in it until our 1st sick day yesterday. They have coloring pages in the book and online, stories, games, and other things. It was the 1st day that I didn't have to read Finding Nemo or Alladin at naptime in about 6 months.

It's ok to watch movies all day when your kids are sick right? It's ok to watch movies all day when your kids are sick right?

We did turn the TV off long enough to make these air freshners.


Got the idea off SugarDoodles

They obviously do not taste good...definitely NOT cookies.

That's alot in that job description. I agree. It is perfectly alright to watch movies when your child is sick. At least that's my opinion. I see you are changing stuff on your blog. Nice! :o) Let me know if you need anymore help. You are such a good mom example for me! Yay you!

It's ok to watch movies all day when you need a day to just watch movies all day. That is the only excuse I need. I'm glad you are ok with your job description...I will admit...I struggle sometimes...it becomes a little monotonous...but we love them enough to just keep doing...right!
