Pride

I'm so proud of my boys...on Monday & Tuesday Kade was home with the stomach bug, and he was such a trooper. I stayed with him on Monday and loved the mommy/Kade time (the 2 1/2 hour nap was really good too), Tuesday he was better, but I didn't want to take any chances, so he stayed with granny (good thing). By Wednesday he was much better and back in school, but when I picked them up, Noah said he wasn't feeling too good. By the time we got home he was sick. That evening he had all the symptoms Kade had, but he was determined...determined that he was not going to miss the next day of school...after not playing a football game for two weeks, there was no way he was going to miss one...he laid in bed that night and say 'mom you know if I miss school tomorrow I'll miss two oral tests in Religion, a quiz in math, a vocabulary test, and the football game - I'm not missing'. I said okay, and told him to pray that he will be better...well he not only made it, but he did very well...he got a 100 on a prayer he had to recite, and he played the entire game, which we won 50-22...
