I've had a sore throat too for a few days. Think I better go eat more cookies & ice cream cause that makes me feel better!

After that I have been pretty good. Even 20 years later, I get sick very rarely.<br /><br />This year we plan to start back up with homeschooling the second week in June. We will then take December off. The weather here in Houston is so hot that it will be easier to school and bribe the kiddos with afternoon time at the pool if they have their work done. <br /><br />Thanks for the prayers, they are what keep me going. The cold is really still kicking my butt! ugh.Neenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04169665137526513607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7288778242664719310.post-79486662070749623122009-05-22T11:59:36.326-05:002009-05-22T11:59:36.326-05:00Hey Girl!
Hope everyone gets to feeling better so...Hey Girl!<br /><br />Hope everyone gets to feeling better soon! <br /><br />From my experience, daycare kiddos and school-attending kiddos do get more illnesses than homeschooled kiddos b/c of the environment. My kids have never been healthier then they were this year...my first year home with them.<br /><br />Ben's ENT gave me a handout that showed how quickly sickness multiplied depending upon how many families were involved in an in-home daycare. So if you have 5 kiddos in the daycare, but only 3 families you will have less illness than if you have 5 kiddos in a daycare from 5 different families. Each family brings different germs into the daycare. So think of a pub/Catholic school classroom where you have 21 different kiddos from 21 different families...yuck!<br /><br />Eventually, you do build resistance to certain germs, bugs, etc., but man, my first year of teaching I picked up all sorts of weird illnesses! Probably why your kiddos get sick at swim club! They're exposed to lots of different families!<br /><br />Anyway, keeping you ALL in my thoughts and prayers as you start off the summer! Do you homeschool year-round? I know families that do it both ways...year-round and summers off! <br /><br />Blessings to you,<br />ValValeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17633704862629969672noreply@blogger.com
