It seems we are plagued in this family with issues. On Sunday, middle of the night, Jenna woke me up and was hot all over. She had come down with a fever. She slept all day Monday, and by Monday night, Mackenzie had it. Today, Tuesday, Mackenzie has been sleeping all day and Jenna, who seemed to be on the mend, is also sleeping, with a low fever.
Then, while preparing dinner, Alan had run down the street to recruit a neighbor for something, when Sierra decided to play with a couple bees swimming in a bucket under our hose out back. She was stung. At that moment, Mackenzie was no longer under the influence of medicine and started crying hysterically.
Thank goodness for big sisters, because with Sierra on one hip, Mackenzie pulling on me and crying, and a pot of boiling water and noodles on the stove, I needed help. Mason ran down the street to bring Alan home. What will I do when he goes on travel in a week???? Calgon, take me away!
Mackenzie is asleep again. Sierra is still requiring attention. Dinner is off the stove now, but who will even eat, when half the household is asleep or in pain?!
A day in the life...or rather, a 5-minute stretch...

Good grief! And I get frazzled with just one child at times. Mason, thank you for being good helper when you need to be.
