    Ugh, ring worm is such a pain. Do they have animals at home? The sibling could have gotten it from someone other than the sister - whether it be a pet, or someone else who is infected. My poor soon caught ringworm from someone on the bus last year and he had it on his eyelid. I spent several years working in an animal shelter setting and am very familiar with ring worm and we caught it quickly and before anyone else could get it.

    Let us know how your chat with dcm goes. Good luck!

        I'm sure that's true, actually! I'd use the process to weed out the ones who go nonstop all weekend. There are a couple here today that wouldn't have made the cut!

Lol, not that I'd do it, but goodness....it's obvious which ones have some kind of normalcy on the weekends, and which ones don't.

          I love the gogogo families. Monday=3 hour naps out of everyone. I'll take the cranky morning.

            I was so hoping for this. The really cranky ones are sound asleep, but I have one that didn't fall asleep until an hour after everyone else, and another that has been awake awhile now. I have had about ten minutes total of everyone being asleep....not typical at all for this group. A big cold front is blowing in....they're a little "off", to put it nicely!

              Usually Tuesdays are my "Mondays", but today has been a doozy!
              My p/t, very active, dcb is here today, and along with my own ds and another dcb, they are horrible when together and today is no exception. Not to mention, the active dcb was pulling Starburst candies out of his pockets at 9am! My dcg is teething and has been whining all day. Is it 5:30 yet? At least they are napping well.

                I thought I was the only one....

                Mondays are never tough for me.....it's always Tuesdays that have me questioning why I even bothered to get up!

                Nice to know I am not alone in having such odd Tuesdays...

                  It's always Tuesdays for me too. Today went well for me. DCB 15mo was picked up early, around 11:30, and DCB 4 only had 1 time out today LOL happyface

                  I'm dreading tomorrow already, especially with the huge snow storm system we have coming in, that's calling for 8-12 inches of snow, sleet, and rain. We're all going to be cooped up in the house, losing our minds!

                    I have that dcb!
                    Just to throw out there.....dcp's don't seem to appreciate when you tell them that their child tends to be a train wreck on Monday's ::..........

                      Tuesdays are tough here too. It's the group of kids I have that day that makes it hard.

                      Today everyone was cranky in the morning and dc baby who is usually fussy and wants to be held is getting sick, so he was EXTRA fussy and wanting to be held. If he hadn't taken a long nap I would have called for pick up. He was better after nap
