Missing

We've noticed our absence.  How could we not?  

Time has passed and we've come to the conclusion that we should emerge.  Here's what we've been doing.  

This post can also be titled:  The Excuses We Have for Neglect.  

First, I got a pretty good dose of Strep throat.  This was surprising because I've been around several people with this bacterial infection and have never contracted it.  The Mr. and I thought I had some strange immunity.  Apparently not.  Strep throat causes great pain and discomfort, especially when the person infected waits 3 days to visit a health practitioner.  Ouch!

The weekend I had strep was the same weekend we celebrated Easter.

Overall, we've been busy.  Not quite in diva fashion, as this picture might indicate, but busy nonetheless:

Enough about that ... We're back and that's the point.

FYI, yesterday, B read a book to his kindergarten class.  Miss R. recorded him and put it on her blog - she faithfully keeps it updated so we could peek into the classroom and see what they're doing - she's great.  Check out our B via the link above or the class link to the left.
