I taught them to share too well

We have had lots of sharing in our house this past week...

Ashton brought home pink eye
And shared it with Dillon
Who shared it with Troy

A coworker came to work with a wicked cold
And shared it with me
The cold includes coughing, stuffy/runny nose, and pink eye (not the viral kind, the kind you get from your sinuses being so full, yummy!)

Someone at school had strep throat
And shared it with Noah
Who now gets to go see the ENT to have his tonsils removed
Apparently 9 cases of strep throat in 3 years in excessive

Dillon got a cold following his pink eye fiasco last week
Now he has an ear infection
And he is getting a new tooth

FYI:
Did you know, that if your child throws up on his pillow when he has strep throat, and your husband carries the pillow to the laundry room and then it gets washed ...that when you empty the washing machine all the big pieces from the puke will still be in your washing machine?
Not my favorite job to clean that out, while Troy oh so helpfully tells me, "the washer smells like puke."
Well thank you babe I didn't realize that while I had my head in there wiping it out.

I feel like I am getting a cold, so I would like to thank any and all who shared with me - I've done well so far this winter, I knew it had to end sometime....

In turn, you all get to pass it through Dolan to the Tucker family.... this is the gift that keeps on giving...I am glad that I can be a part of it... thanks for the heads up on the puke part...
