We sent about four more suspected cases of Hand, Foot, and Mouth home yesterday. Once again, it is a virus and often not very bad at all. Children will run a low-grade fever and develop blisters on hands, feet, and mouth. It is very contagious. However, they are most contagious before the blisters ever break out. It lasts about five days. The serious part of it is if the blisters get inside the mouth. That can be very uncomfortable. If you want more information, visit the site below.

We disinfected like crazy yesterday, and hopefully, with the little break today and this weekend, we will all be healthy by Monday! Make sure you wash your child's hands frequently!
Just a little reminder that November tuition is due on Monday and Tuesday next week. I don't know about you, but this fall seems to be flying by!
I got the chance to escort the children back and forth to have their pictures made this week. I think you will be very pleased with the outcome. There were some adorable pictures taken, and we can tell the children who are pros at the picture-taking game; they were too, too funny! We had a great time watching them. We appreciate SpoiledRottenPhotography. They were wonderful as we worked them non-stop!
