So! Recently, we've had a bout of H1N1 up in this hizouse. Or not. Who knows. What I do know was Emily got a big-ass but short-lived fever, a little bit of tired, and a slightly longer lasting cough. No belly pains, no lethargy, no dehydration. Several days later, Ethan followed suit. There and gone. From what I can tell, this either was or was not piggy-flu. So I am going with it was, and the rest of us developed the proper anti-bodies from the exposure. So, yay! All immune! Or not. Because it doesn't matter anyway. There is no vaccine to be had in our area, and even if it were, I'm not entirely sure I'd be willing to take it out of the noses hands of people who are at significantly greater risk than we. Also? I'm not looking for opinions here, so you just go ahead and marinate yours in your delightful noggin.
So what the hell is my point, you ask? Just this:
During Ethan's aforementioned illness, he was belly-down on the floor, playing a board game with Connor.
Sam: He's not getting this whole "sick in bed" thing.
Me: Yeah. We're gonna have to teach him, I guess.
Sam: We could cut off his legs. That'll keep him in bed.
Ethan: No, that'd keep me right here.
Because that's just how this family rolls.

then you could change his name to "Matt"
It seems he's used to your empty threats. You should carry one out sometime, just to keep him guessing.
the alberta gov't has certainly created some shit around here too.
create mass hysteria, and then "oh, sorry...there just isn't enough..."
whatever. glad your kiddos are well again.
and also that they still have their legs;)
