"I'm Sick"

...The above is a quote from 2 of my boys today. First was Jeffrey, who in the middle of the night had a lot of congestion in his chest. He's going to the doctor as I write this post. I'm sure he has the flu and has contaminated his whole office. He's NEVER missed a day of work for being sick. Isn't that crazy? Can you say "WORK ETHIC"?
Second was Jake, who was super fussy this morning. I asked him if he was sick and he said he was. So, I told him to go back to bed...AND HE DID (he hates to be in his bed w/o his brother...he obviously isn't feeling great!). He didn't go back to sleep but brought his pillow and blanket down about 30 minutes later to watch TV on the couch. Sometimes we just need a "sick day". He is now asleep in my bed and has been for a couple of hours. He did inform me, however, that when Will got home...he wouldn't be sick anymore. Hmmm.......
