The Good Stuff

Melia likes to nibble the crust off her bread first. Not because she thinks the middle is best, like I do, but because she loves the crust.

This morning, Kiera decided not to eat her toast (which is not normally ok, but just this morning 'cause we're taking it easy on her tummy...). I typically give her the end piece if we have one, just because she doesn't know any better, and I don't like them. But I told Melia (who wanted seconds) that she could eat Kiera's toast, and she saw that it was an end piece- Whoa! It was like I had given her a treat :-) I never thought I would have children who would fight over the end of the loaf...

(And yes, Mom, I remember how we used to fight over the end of the loaf. But that was homemade... this is plain ole storebought bread!)

Kiera is better. The noise level in our house has risen back to normal... Pretty good, I'd say. A few hours of vomit, a day of fever. For being sick, it wasn't too long or yucky :-) Thank you Lord! Now if the rest of us can stay healthy! (I've had Thieves diffusing most of the time the last few days, so hopefully it wiped out any lingering bacteria/viruses...)
