The flu has been really bad in Wisconsin - I don't know if it is the same in Tennessee, but this year it isn't just the respiratory gunk, it is also the stomach flu at the same time! Talk about adding insult to injury. <BR/><BR/>I just hope Andrew had a good birthday, sans party. I never really had them growing up, and I turned out just fine. :) <BR/><BR/>And knowing you, Meredith, you'll find another occasion to have him a party. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-8193569782287195922008-02-28T07:18:00.000-06:002008-02-28T07:18:00.000-06:00I love that the birthday cake was already on the t...I love that the birthday cake was already on the table ready for the Birthday Boy!
