Derek's Flu and Project

Derek came home from school on Thursday feeling terrible

Friday morning he was running a 104 degree temperature. The doctor said he had the flu - despite the fact that he had a flu shot a couple months ago.

He stayed home yesterday also, but is trying to go to school today because his 8th grade class is going on a field trip\orientation to the high school. How can our baby be going to high school? 10 years ago, just a blink of the eye, he was a preschooler. 10 years from now he'll be out of college and well on his way to building his own life...hopefully.



There's been a lot of lying around watching content and playing Xbox, but he's also been working quite a bit on a project for his Language Arts class. He says it's "something about looking to the past while looking forward".
