Illness

James left today for an out-of-town job so I'll be on my own until Monday and what do you know--Edie woke up with a stomach bug. Sigh. She and June are currently zoned out on the couch with Pedialyte popsicles. (June's not sick, she just seems to enjoy the slightly salty flavor of illness-related freezer pops.) I'm so tired I actually fell asleep in the middle of reading them a book--something I've never done before. It felt quite bizarre.

Oh, and here's a motherly tip: when choosing an on-demand movie avoid the 1972 British musical version of Alice in Wonderland because your kid will inevitably make you watch it with them and, trust me, it's not as good as you remember from when you were young.
