Samantha

I don't have a recent picture of Sam, besides the one at the top, but she wasn't mentioned in any of the other posts so here is one about her. Yesterday we had a "sick" day. Samantha has a cold and when she woke up she wasn't feeling to great. That's normal for having a cold. She was once again doing the "I'm sick, I don't want to go to school" thing. You know how it goes, they think that if they stay home it's all fun and games and playing. Jamie and I decided to let her have a sick day, but since she was "sick" that meant all day laying down, no playing. Not two minutes after I get off the phone with the school I find her upstairs playing saying that she is feeling better. Grrrr. I told her that she has to lay down or go to school. She said school. Double grrrrr. Well, I tried my hardest, and made her stay down all day, no toys. Whatever I did, it worked. She decided that school was more fun and by the time Jamie came home from work she was saying, I hope I am well enough for school tomorrow. She was quite eager to get up and ready for school today. I hope this memory lasts a while for her.
