And then...

Parker got sick. His lingering runny nose turned into a fever, and lots of coughing keeping him up.  I didn't figure it was much, but I always worry those tubes have fallen out and he's got another ear infection.  Well, they haven't. So that's good. But...

He had pneumonia.

A mild case, fortunately, but it made for one difficult week as we tried to juggle work and home schedules, and comfort our sick boy, until he felt well enough to go back to school.  And while we waited, I tried to get him outside to enjoy some fresh air.

So we mowed the driveway.

And we checked out some rocks.
