All is well

So we finally squashed the nasty flu bug and I hope it doesn't go around terrorizing another family. It seems practically everyone's sick - even my dearest friends back home - so there's definitely something in the air. All I can say is eat your vitamins, drink lots of water water and make sure you get plenty of sleep.

I'm glad Kayla's up and about terrorizing me again... :) It's comforting to know she's eating and sleeping well again. She was having so much trouble sleeping with a congested nose that we took her to the doc again. And maybe that was a bad idea. She spent more time crying than he did examining her. Plus we didn't even feed her the over-the-counter cold meds he recommended, even though the temptation to, and I quote, "knock her out," was a wee bit hard to resist. Perhaps all that loud crying cleared up the congestion but she slept instantly well that night.

There's so much I wanna write but can't because a ton of work has piled up because the publisher's sick (see, told you everyone's ill) and hasn't been able to do much! But stay tuned for posts to come: Storytime at Morgan Hill (and how a 25-pounder scratched Kayla's porcelain face) and Kayla's favorite junk food. :)
