Today, March 11, with its high of 53 in Sioux Falls was the warmest day we've had since the last week of November. And wouldn't you know it, the flu bug finally hit my family.

This morning at 3:41, I was awakened by the unmistakeable sound of one my twin boys "tossing his cookies". My wife and I jumped into action. I whisked him into the tub to clean him up and she accepted the mission of cleaning up his bed.

My other twin boy slept through it all, but during the day was producing diapers like I had never seen or smelled before.

And my wife, who is a teacher, decided to stay home from school today since she wasn't feeling up to snuff either.

So, if you notice I'm not here at some point soon, it's not that I'm enjoying the nice weather. I'll be home trying to get healthy!
