The Firsts of 2011

Today marks my first day back to work in the new year.

It also marks the first sick kid of the new year.

I asked Will to give me his best "I feel yucky" face. He did not have to work too hard at it as he has been sporting a fever and an icky cough for the past 24 hours.
On the bright side, Eliza Grace only said how horrible her day would be because she hated going back to school about 8 times before we headed out the door.

I think perhaps I will pretend that tomorrow is the first of the firsts of 2011. Things can only go up from here, right? Right?
