Happy Friday. We’ve pretty much had our longest fit period since September, but alas, it was so easy. A second bout of stomach bugs hit our house this week because there wasn’t enough stomach bugs to start the year. Marin turns 3 this weekend, and I managed to get my hands on a unicorn balloon, a tutu, and a kaleidoscope. It’s exciting to celebrate your child’s birthday when they finally (sort of) understand it. With negative temperatures today and over the weekend, we will be staying close to home. I think a unicorn balloon would make everything perfect. I wish you a nice weekend.
Here are the best of the week…
