The other day my son, Jordan, woke up feeling "sick" and "needed to stay home from school". Well, he normally loves to go to school and he DID have a cough so I let him stay home.

This was a snapshot that I took of him which I emailed to his dad to show just how sick he really was. Here he is drawing Veggie Tale characters along with the video VeggieTales How to Draw.

I feel so very blessed to be able to stay home with my children when they have a sick day whether it is real or a hookie day!
