A Healthy Household, once again

Well, I think this is the first day in about a month that noone has woken up with a fever, sore throat, throwing up or some other ailment. It first started with the oldest child and made it's way through all of the kids. For some of them, it hit the twice, and for some it took weeks to get rid of.
Poor David, started a running a fever in the middle of Great Grandma's viewing, and my mom had to come and get him. His fever lasted 6 days. Now, he is one that when he gets sick, he drops weight, and is allergic to the common antibiotics you can give children. So, since the Dr had no idea what was wrong, they didn't want to just put him on antibiotics since most are too strong for him. So we watched, waited and prayed while he dropped a few pounds, till his fever disappeared and he started gaining his strength back. Now we need to help him gain weight again.



Another fun thing that happened. Right before easter we were at Walmart, when some out of control child ran straight into my youngest, Faith. Her head smacked into the cart and immediately she started to scream. The other childs mother came and grabbed her child, gave me a dirty look and proceeded to say something in spanish while pulling her child away from us. Now, I don't speak spanish, but I know enough to know that she wasn't apologizing. While part of me wanted to chase her down and make her acknowledge what her child had done to mine and make them apologize, my child was screaming and needed to be dealt with. When she finally pulled her face away from me, I noticed a horrible bruise already forming under her left eye. I looked up to see if they were still around, but they were long gone. So, Faith, got to wear a beautiful new easter dress with a black eye. We convinced her the black eye matched with her outfit. I mean pink and purple do go together right. She proudly showed off her black eye at church as an accessory along with her new purse and easter hat.
