I'm glad to say, we seem to be on the mend. Our "flu" ended up only consisting of one nasty night, and a slightly touchy day. Not too bad, really.
All that remains, is a tiny bit of queasiness, and six grumbly children, out of sorts, and suffering from cabin fever. Of course, now that they are feeling better, the weather has turned to yuck - rain - wind- snow - sun - rain - wind - snow. I'm actually beginning to suspect I'm not a fan of springtime.
Or, at least, I was starting to feel that way, before Jeremy Tankard's Grumpy Bird arrived in, at the library for us. The back of the book promises it is a "cure-all for a bad mood".

It's great to be a homeschooler.

I am glad that everyone is on the mends! It sounds like we are having the same weather here!
Don't send it our way, that's all I ask. We're finally settling down into decent weather, not the constant up and downs of migraines.
Glad to hear everyone is on the mend, and you reminded me I really need to check out Scholastic's website more.
I am glad that everyone is feeling better. I've never heard of Grumpy Birds before, but what an appropriate name for a bunch of kids on the mend. Funny picture of your youngest one too.
I love Grumpy Bird! I never thought about checking for printables... I'll have to think about that next time.
I am a four year old Preschool teacher. My class & I love all the Grumpy Bird books.Thank you for these wonderful ideas.I love this site and I am a big fan of handprint crafts:)
