Why does everyone but me always get sick?

It seems to be the norm in this household:  L goes to preschool and gets sick.  She gets over it quickly but passes it along to E.  E gets it bad and suffers for quite awhile.  E then gives her sickness back to L and then to Daddy.  Daddy gets sickest of all, but Mommy never gets sick.  I have a few theories:

1.  L gets sick first from all the other kids at preschool.  Therefore, to prevent sicknesses, I should prevent my children from interacting with other children.  HA.
2.  L's immune system is like mine - quick, fast, dirty, over.
3.  E's immune system is like my brother's - weak, slow, unmotivated, lingering.
4.  E coughs, hacks, and touches everything, making sure that our house is a ticking time bomb of whatever sickness she has.  You can't touch anything without getting sick too!
5.  Daddy gets sickest of all because he doesn't spend 80% of his time alone with kids.  Heck, part of his sickness might also be cooties.
6.   Mommy never gets sick because she's always around kids, has to clean up sickness stuff/kid messes all the time, and because she kicks @$$ working out and staying healthier than others.

My mentality can't take having three sick people in one house for very long, so here's hoping someone is better tomorrow so I don't kill all of them.
