Well, this is Athena's first day of year to be home sick from school. Hopefully, like last year, this will be her only day. She had a fever last night and still today. Acts fine, just running a temperature.

This is end of Carter's first week at preschool. Every morning, the first thing he says when he gets up is "Mommy, do I have to go to school today?". When I say yes, he cries and cries and says he wants to stay with me and not go. Then 15 minutes before we leave, he asks if we can go as he "needs" to get to school. He seems to really like it and just beams when he arrives and when I pick him up. He wrote some numbers and letters (traced them) for the first time today. Cool.
