Rolen Around the Bend

This week wasn’t much of an adventure. Both of my girls ended up getting sick this week. The eldest came down with Flu B and Strep. Then twenty-four hours later her sister came down with Flu B too. Fastforward to Saturday and my husband ended up coming down with Strep. I’m scared to say that I’m in the clear so far. Then I ended up taking a flu test on Friday, but it was negative. Thank goodness! I guess it’s just a matter of time, but I can hope right?
