Spring is in the air...

And even though the ground is still wet and in some places down right marshy, we have been enjoying time outside.

The kids have been playing with all of their toys and getting muddy. They really ejnoy this time of year when getting muddy is ok and there are puddles to jump into.

Mom does not mind ~ That is why there are bathtubs!!!

As for me, I have been digging in the dirt as well. The weeds do not stand a chance with me out there now. I have also planted some seeds, transplanted a few things and in general have been cleaning up things outside.

It is starting to look good out there.

Share and Share Alike

The kids are all pretty good about sharing toys. They have no choice in sharing a room but still do so with good humor on most days. They LOVE to share food especially when one kiddos does not like one thing and can trade it for what the other kiddo does not like in turn.

But why, oh why, do they have to share every sniffle, cough, cold, bug, illness, fever and disease that comes into the house???

No matter what we do we have to share even that which should not be shared.

Today Mikey and Charlie are sharing the sniffles. Mikey has it worse. Jonny and Charlie are sharing pink-eye. Charlie has it worse.

Ahhh well, this too shall pass....

...until the next time something comes wandering in with one of them to be happily shared with another.
