My kids are so sweet!

I was very sick last night.

This morning I woke up around 7:45 and was surprised that I was still in bed. I thought maybe Andrew had stayed home so had been entertaining the kids.

But then I heard Morgan giving out little orders. “Jared, you clean and I’ll sweep.” Then she knocked on my door, holding a broom and asked, “Mama, we’re cleaning up the living room for you and then we’re going to clean the kitchen and our bathroom. Me and Jared already made up our beds. But can we go ahead and get Elena out of bed so we can clean the play room?” (Her crib is in the play room)

I called Andrew, thinking maybe he put them up to this. He’ll sometimes tell the kids that when I’m not feeling well, they need to help out. But he says he had nothing to do with it.

My children are just soooo sweet. Jared just asked if we could have McDonalds for breakfast and I think I can totally work that out. I know McDonalds isn’t the healthiest of places, but they’ve done a ton of work and love those yogurt and fruit parfaits.
