Ahhhhh....

This morning, my house is quiet. And still. And dirty as all hell, but peaceful nonetheless. Mason's been sick for over a week, and his little cold turned into an ear infection (complete with piercing shrieks and inconsolable cries of pain). We braved the cats and dogs that were being issued from the sky above Monday morning to get him into the doctor and then again to pick up some antibiotics from the store. After an extra day of rest yesterday, he's back in school this morning.
Let me tell you, it feels so good for him to be back in school today. Ahhhh. I'm really, truly and completely grateful for antibiotics. I know that Mason's ear isn't bothering him anymore and I get a morning off while he's at school and Marissa naps. Ahhhhh.
