A Few Updates
Elliot, as you probably guessed, is through with his stomach virus. But he missed the entire week of school last week! Ugh. Zippy is home again today. We had a pretty rough asthma day yesterday. We went back to the doctor, who added some additional meds. He said that it is highly unusual for an [...]

A Trip to ER
We were awakened by the sound of Zachary gasping for breath about 12:30AM last night. He was in a panic, his eyes huge and terrified. With every breath in and every breath out, his neck and chest constricted tightly as he struggled to breathe. It had come on fast. Before I even made it to [...]

Test
Zachary has an anxiety disorder. He worries a lot. He is in a constant state of stress. One of his anxieties is school. Namely, failing school. Last year he was always afraid of failing 2nd grade. This year he is terrified of failing 3rd grade. While all of his grades are currently passing, there is [...]

Sick Boy
Elliot. Poor Elliot. He is a sick boy. He has a terrible stomach bug. A stomach bug that I’m hoping he doesn’t share. It’s a bad one. He started vomiting at midnight last night, and then he vomited every 20 minutes until the sun came up. It. was. bad. He was so miserable all day [...]

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Today was a great day because there was no school. Today was a great day because it was sunny and in the 60s. Today was a great day because we played with friends. But today was also a great day because we took time to remember a good, brave man who helped change the heart [...]
