Yesterday I had a full day, running errands and getting some things done. Half way through I get a phone call from the school. Aaliyah has head lice!!!! What?!?! I know this might be bad and totally un-motherly but I was instantly annoyed and grossed out. I didn't want to touch her head, let alone pick though her hair. I had to leave what I was doing and pick her up form school. I spent the rest of my day washing everything and picking through Aaliyah's hair like a monkey.

Lucky me Anthony had it too, but He only had 1 bug and 3 little eggs. So what did I do? I shaved his head!!! Why cant girls be that easy? Can you hear my frustration with all this?
I'm a clean freak so this really made me turn into a bug-a-Phoebe. Needless to say my house is spotless and I'm pretty sure the survival of those little demons are slim to none. I even treated the cats, I don't know if cats can get lice but I didn't want to find out!
I think today we are bug free, if not then they will surly die soon!

Enough talk of lice. I'm starting to Itch now. Anthony had soccer practice yesterday. He started that on Monday. He's so excited. I think that boys breathes soccer. He loves it and is really quite good at it too. I'm excited to see him progress through the years, I think if he sticks with it he could go far. I'm not a crazy soccer mom, you wont see me yelling at him at his games but I fully support his love for the game. Now I need to find something Aaliyah likes to do. She is such an awkward kid. I think we will just have to try some different things and see what works.

Anyhow, I really need to get off this computer. I have so much to do today. We are having a Jr high overnight event and I need to get ready for it. I'm making a bunch of yummy goodies! Being leaders in our Jr high youth group has kept us pretty busy. I have to admit, I wanted nothing to do with it when I first started but I love it now.

Yay for no more bugs!
