Home again- but not for a snow day

How disappointed was I when I turned on the TV at 6:30 to find every single surrounding school district closed, but not Zeeland. I was sure we'd get a snow day today. I woke Cobe up at 7:45, and he said his legs hurt. Then he started complaining about feeling like he was going to throw up. He never pretends to be sick, so I guess I should have believed him, but I kept encouraging him to get up, get ready, eat breakfast, etc. He tried. I finally gave in and said he could go to school late. I felt his head around 9:30 or 10:00, and he definitely had a fever. I just gave him Motrin about 30 minutes ago because he is achy and has a headache. Poor guy! So I called in sick, and Lisa is going to sub for me. It is so nice not to have to rush in and leave sub plans- she is always willing to sub for me, and she is such a good sub that she doesn't need me to leave plans. I just told her what to do over the phone, and she is good to go. Cobe has been really clingy though ( SO unlike him!) and wants me to stay with him in the bed. I refuse to do that- memories of my recent illness keep flashing before my eyes, so I do not want to get what he has. I hope it is short-lived whatever he has. He'll be going to the Dr. in the morning if he is still sick because we are supposed to go to Great Wolf Lodge on Saturday. I would hate to have to postpone our trip again. I hope he gets well soon and that nobody else gets it. Off to take care of the patient.

P.S. I almost forgot. I used my Christmas money last night to make a big purchase. I bought this camera, and I can't wait for it to get here!!!!!!!
