Mr. G was sick last week, then Ms. P, and now --(I knew it was coming)-- now Ms. K is sick. I was at a friend's house tonight and sweet hubby called me. Ms. K had woke up and was having a major croup episode. By the time I got home, he had been able to get her settled down and "stable". I came home to her lounging on the couch with a warm blanket and some tea, watching a movie. Just as we think we are able to head to bed, no such luck. I heard Ms. P...she's coughing...no wait! She, too, is having a croup episode - just one hour after Ms. K! (I thought Ms. P was supposed to be getting better?!)
Let's just say we have spent some time on the back patio tonight - and we weren't sipping lemonade enjoying the sunset! It's dark and it's SO VERY cold out there! Which, just happens to be perfect for someone with croup. (I'm so glad it was not windy tonight). Sitting outside, in 0 degree temps with freezing cold children wrapped in blankets waiting for the cold air to help them breathe, is not my idea of a fun time. But, all seems to be okay now, both girls are on the couch in warm blankets, with tea, watching Lion King 1-1/2.
But, check back with me this weekend - I'm sure that by Saturday, it will be sweet hubby & I, lounging on the couch, wrapped in warm blankets, with tea, watching Lion King 1-1/2!
If we escape this round of illness...I will be so thankful. But, then, there's always my second-favorite month of the year to contend with: FEBRUARY! gggrrrr...how many days until Hawaii?!
