It’s Been One of Those Weekends

On Friday son #1 got a piece of gravel in his eye. We were unable to get it out so he and I took a trip to urgent care where the doctor was able to remove it. The gravel scratched his cornea so the doctor applied a path over the eye. That evening son #2 began to show signs of coming down with a cold. On Saturday morning both son #1 and son #2 were coughing and feeling very bad. In addition, my wife has been battling something for the past week or two. We haven’t been getting much sleep as it is with a newborn in the house and with two other sick children sleep has been a rather elusive dream. As of today some smiles have started to slowly return though.

(My kids’ expressions in the photos above weren’t coerced. They were feeling that bad.)
