Vanessa never misses school. Other than little sniffles here and there we've been lucky she doesn't get sick too much. But today she said she has a stuffy head and headache, so she stayed home. She spent some time chilling on the couch, watching all kinds of TV, and now she's gently playing school with Zane. She told me since her head is hurting a tad she won't play rough and won't do round offs in the great room. Good to know. :-) She seems fine to me, but she can afford a day off. I get it.
I think another special thing about the day for Vanessa was eating homemade chicken and veggie soup on trays in the great room.
UPDATE: At dinner time Vanessa said "You know I kind of planned my sick day. You know how I get phlegm as we near spring months? Because of the pollen and cotton stuff flying through the air? Well, that's why I was coughing, so I figured I might be sick on Monday, Wednesday or Friday. I guess it was Monday!""
