From Friend to Frindle

I have to write this in a week form. Just so many things were going on this week. Sunday night Tracy, my friend from Washington, came into town. We had a good but very brief visit interrupted by the start up of the elementary choir again. So here to the early mornings on Mondays and Wednesday. I also went shopping for the gate for the top of the stairs. We need to rig a dummy board to our railing because the wall and the end of the railing are off set. I will leave that up to my wonderful husband.
This picture is of how an early mornings affects William and Marin (next door neighbor that gets a ride to choir with us)

-Tuesday brought on the doctors visit for Josh.

-Wednesday was still a sick day. By that night I had resigned to the fact that Josh needed to go back to the doctor.He just doesn't look very good in this picture. This was Thursday morning.

-Thursday Josh woke up with 103.2 fever. After two whole days of antibiotics I was kind of worried about him. But I gave him Tylenol and sent him to my sisters so I could go and substitute at the school. I got to sub Sariahs' class. They are a really good bunch of kids. They are earning "money" for their business day at the end of April. So I got to give it out and take it back for bad behavior. It is amazing what kids will do for the right to keep their money. We also read a book called "Frindle". School ended at 3:15 and I had to take Josh to a doctors apt. at 3:45. William had scouts at 4:00 (thank heavens for car pooling). Well the doctor seems to think that Josh also had a viral on top of the bacterial. Of course he has felt better ever since I took him. But now he has a rash on his torso. That night was a stake meeting for the music choristers. Our Stake Music leader went through the LDS web site. It has fun things you can do with music.

-Friday was the Valentine Day parties at the school. Only I didn't have to help because I was the teacher for the day. I subbed Sariahs' class again. I had a really good day. The kids were excited for the party but they also knew that they had to get their reading and spelling tests out of the way. Then they finished a video called Stonefox, it had a rather sad ending and half the class need a tissue ( it's about a boy trying to save his grandfathers ranch by racing against the rest of the town. In the end his dog dies winning the race). Then the party. The kids had a great time. I even had time to go and sit in on Williams' party. And watch the sixth grades "dance". It was a good day. Here is the picture of Sariahs' class with their "Frindles". You will have to read the book to understand about the picture.
