Sick Children and the Olympics
Is it just me or does it seem that children get sick at the most inopportune times? Sierra has been suppressing a cough for a few days now but last night she and Gage both tossed and turned and sniffled all night long. Sierra has a fever that we have been controlling with Tylenol and Motrin.Poor Gage, there is not much I can do for him. I have some Vicks and a humidifier. I hate having to keep Sierra out of school. For one, she obviously misses whatever lessons they are working on; and two, it screws up my schedule. I have pretty much resigned myself to the fact that she will be home again tomorrow. I really hope when she starts Kindergarten in the fall her immune system will be built up and we won't have to go through this again. She had hardly spent a day in her life being ill until she started preschool.
And as much as I enjoy watching the Olympics (and I really do enjoy them, especially the Winter Olympics) I am ready for them to be over. I have stayed up late every night this week watching. I need some sleep!
