March marched on past....

So our household spent the majority of March sick.  That's it.  Every Friday night for three straight weeks one of the kids was sick and/or diagnosed with Strep - and then the fourth week one had to go on a stronger med because the Strep never let go.

But even in the midst of germs, we're doing life.

* Losing teeth and growing new ones
* Having a worm live in a pot on our kitchen table (lovely place for a worm, don't you think?)
* Mr. B starting swimming lessons and slowly overcoming his terror of the water thanks to Dad's creativity, suggesting he "dive" for coins at the bottom of the bathtub
* Living in our half-mini-updated kitchen (no wallpaper, no wall color, open switches and light figures, endless samples of backsplash tile bought and returned)
* Mommy being blessed with work - and the crazy business that it entails
* Visiting Fernbank and Chattanooga, lazing around the Bent Tree lake, seeing the bald eagle's nest at Berry College and learning about Winshape Camps
* Watching our grass turn from brown to green and our perennial tulips appear once again despite Mom's inattention
* Learning that bike seats need to be raised because we've grown!
* Many, many, many stick pictures of clone troopers in the driveway
* Way too many repetitions of "Let it Go" and "Do you want to build a snowman"  :-)
