A Perfect Sick Day

Well, today Dave took a sick day from school because he has pink eye.  We decided that this is probably the best sick day scenario for a teacher.  He doesn’t really feel that bad, it takes a full 24 hours for the eye drops to clear it up enough that he’s no longer contagious, and he’s required to stay home from school until the contagious period is over. Yes, there's plenty of hand washing etc. going on, but overall it's pretty benign.

                                                        

We took advantage of our unexpected day with Daddy and finally made another trip to the ecological park near Xochimilco.

We fed the ducks, 

 soaked in some more of that wonderful sunshine,

walked around the park,

 and played with sticks in the dirt.

It was a wonderful way to spend a Monday afternoon.
