Asher has been sick off and on since Saturday.
Today was a sick day.
Too bad for Asher that sick days around here are not pretty.
Notice the austere surroundings.
Down comforter. Deck of cards. DVD case stuffed with movies ad nauseum.
And Toaster Streudel.
In addition to being one tough mama, I’m a health nut. And I don’t care who knows it.
I’m also quite strict. Only highly educational shows allowed around here.
And I don’t care who knows that, either.
I also insist that my children wear clothes, even when they might not feel like it due to a high fever.
Because if I indulge these children of mine, they might learn to like the sick day.

I LOVE those last two pictures of him. They are beautiful!
Carrie says
Ditto Jen's comments! That is exactly what I was going to say … Such cute pictures of a handsome guy!! Hope he feels better soon!
Mei Mei s and Mayhem says
Love the pic of him under the blanket!! What a good lookin guy even when sick!!
Kiy says
I *so* know where I'm heading on my next sick day. In fact, *coughcough* maybe I need one tomorrow! Tell Asher to say me some room on that sofa – and especially some of that yummy comforter!
Seriously, the pics are great. Lots of patience to sit while Mom takes pictures!
Cheers, Kiy

Aw, poor Asher! I love the pics, he's gonna be a heart breaker!!!!
Love ya!
Jean says
I have issues.. I love it when my kids are home sick! I get to be with them all day, play a game, love on them, visit and maybe even watch a little TV with them (at which point I usually fall asleep)!
I hope Asher has enjoyed his time at home! Something tells me he has!!

This is a great post. Just the perfect amount of sarcastic humor that my day needed!! ๐ LOVE these photos…completely priceless! Especially the last few!! You're such a 'mean' mama! (mean ~ as in: can I come to your house and have you take care of me when I'm sick!?! ) LOL!! ๐
Patricia/NYC says
Sick or not sick, Asher is one handsome boy! Hope he's feeling better soon!! I bet that toaster strudel & that oh-so-comfoy looking comforter made him feel just a teeny bit better! ๐
Jill says

I love it that y'all are watching Napoleon Dynamite. It always makes me feel better too!
DiJo says
You crack me up!!! Nothing like super Mamarazzi on the sick beauties!!! Love it!
Don't tell my kids how fun it is to be sick. Or perhaps I can send them to nurse Stef when they are!
He is sooo cute, and I hope he is better for the weekend! ~Diana
Denise says
Hope he is feeling better. those last 2 pictures…really, they are beautiful Stephanie…better have those framed!
Sharon says
Sorry Asher isn't feeling well but he sure looks cute!
Brinley got sick as soon as we walked in the door from school Wednesday. Put her backpack down and 'got sick' all over it, her shoes, her coat. Didn't quite create a Kodak moment like old Asher with his sweet grin! Girl, it was baaaaad! LOL She looked up at me and said, "See? I toad you I what-nt peelin' good!".
Jenny says
I just hate when my boys are sick….what a beautiful boy Asher is. Sure hope he's feeling better soon.
