Kayla wakes up this morning with a low grade fever again. So she stayed home today. All by herself! It was her first try at staying home that long and taking care of herself. She texted with us throughout the day, and just bummed around and played Wii and read books. Kevin came home early and finished a call. Then he took her to the Target clinic because that cough was pretty bad. The verdict? Sinus infection AND bronchitis! She has amoxicillin and an inhaler. Poor kid! No school tomorrow either, but if she is breathing well enough by Saturday, she can still go to Honors Band. Her director understands missing tonight.

Why is it that we try to meet Kieran and it prompts my kids to get sick? Lucky for us, Kayla will be 48 hours on antibiotics before we meet him, so it will be all good.

Happy thoughts for the only kid I know who can force a fever to go away by sheer will power so she wouldn’t miss a coaster day!
