Yesterday Annie had puked three times by 8 am, and I decided to declare a sick day. The big kids watched nature and Egyptian history documentaries in the morning while I cleaned up vomit and snuggled with Annie (she just has a cold that is causing her to gag, not a stomach bug), and then in the afternoon while Annie napped, we pulled out a new subscription box that Inspire had bought for us and did a watercolor lesson! Let’s Make Art has tutorials on youtube and then sends you a box with all the supplies. We all grabbed a paintbrush and gave it a try–and we had a lot of fun! The kids can’t wait to do another one. Actually, I was up at 5:30 and 6:30 am feeding a now-very-sick-Annie and comforting a coming-down-with-the-cold Janie, so we might have another documentaries-and-art school day today.
