Poo-Flu

Below is a copy of an email I sent to Jimmy today. It explains why there hasn't been an update to yesterday's post. Or pictures of Ali's first day of preschool. Sweet Little Ali passed the plague on to us (and her visiting grandparents!) 10 days ago and I still feel crummy. Forget about the swine flu - we have what I call the Poo Flu, 'cuz you just feel like ----!

Jimmy,

Can you call our nanny and have her pick up the girls, make dinner, do homework, drive to soccer practice, clean up, do baths and get the kids to bed? That would be great, thanks.

I am going to get in bed and stay there until I feel like a normal human being again. I am sick of this plague Ali has given us...

Oh wait, I think I was hallucinating...I AM the nanny!

Your wife

Aren't you the one who, years ago, told me "sometimes the mom is the mom is the mom" ?

Yeah... I knew I'd get to toss them there words of wisdom back at you one of these days (LOL).

Hang in there... The nanny may not be on her way, but lots of prayers and love are. Here's hoping you are all better soon!

Love you!

PS: The Poo Flu! Hilarious... That is just so exactly right... I'm going to steal that from you!

well, the only nanny I know that might help you is incapacitated herself. So that leaves Mr. Mom who also has the poo flu. I love that.

Oops. that didn't sound right - I meant "poo flu", not that Jimmy has it also.
