What's a restroom?

Hailey asked Ryker this, and he said "it's a place where you take a nap"
I just am laughing inside and sometimes out loud listening to them communicate.

She is really trying to teach him stuff, and it is really cute when she is reading to him, or teaching him things.

why i love hearing kids speak....

Hailey: "Mom, is today fast sunday?"
Mom: "nope, it's not, it's the middle of March."
Ryker: "Mom, is it slow sunday?"
Mom: "yep."
Hailey: "there is no such thing" (continuing laughing hard)
Mom: "it sure does exist, and today is slow sunday"
We all ended up laughing.
The kids are finally feeling better. Ryker has been sick again, croup and all the gunk that has been going around.
He was taken to the doctor in the middle of the night, for the steroid shot, I was worried about the oxygen levels, I put the oxcimeter on him and it was 72, and the highest it got was 88 at home, by the time we got to the doctors office it was 91, then he was taken back for antibiotics two days later, because he was worse. No hospitalization though, and no on the flu test. I was scared for him, like always. His lungs were clear this time too.
Hailey was sick too, her body doesn't make normal colds crazy colds though. She did great, and went to school all week.
Mike got sick too, took him to the doctor and they did the flu test and a blood test. The tests came back that his stuff was a virus.
Somehow, I made it, without getting sick. I feel blessed, because my marathon is coming up. Yes, I am doing another one. This training is different though, I feel like I have gotten over some huge hurdles, I run when I can, and if I can't, well, it sucks but I am a mom first. This time, if I need to stop in the middle that is fine, or if they are hungry, I stop, or if I am hungry I stop. This would have been unheard of 5 years ago. I am still working on stuff, but this is a big change for me.
I ran fifteen miles yesterday, and took the kids swimming, it was a great day. I am grateful, that they are doing better and like to be active with me.
This week will be a big week, my little sister, is getting her mission call. I will miss her so much, she is a little over 6 feet tall, and blonde, and beautiful, and so smart. She is hilarious, and very outgoing. She will be an awesome missionary. My family is all girls so this is a first for our family. What an awesome first.
Well, on with the slow sunday!
