Sickness Takes Over


Sunday night we were awaken by that dreadful cough known as Croup! It was Elaine. We ran her through some steam and she seemed okay. We kept her home on Monday and took her to the doctor who confirmed the diagnosis. By the time evening rolled around she seemed fine. So the next morning Patrick took the twins to the sitter's and headed to work. She was fine all morning and even when Bev put her in her seat for lunch. By the time the kids finished lunch and Bev picked her up to take her out of her seat, she had a 103 temperature! Patrick picked her up and she stayed home the rest of the week. Poor Elaine was so miserable. By Friday afternoon the fever was completely gone and she was perking up. Since she hadn't eaten A THING for four days, I spoiled her and let her eat seriously fatty foods all week long.
