The infirmary (spelling?)

Sorry about the delay in posting, our house is a sick ward. Owen came down w/ a fever of 102 on Tuesday night and it's been downhill since then. He has an ear infection and last night we spent a good portion of the middle of the night sitting outside (a combo of croup and asthma going on...). We debated about an emergency run to the ER after 3 middle of the night breathing treatments, but he finally settled down. Poor kid! He missed the big Valentine's party at school and the 100 day of school celebration yesterday. Henry has a slight runny nose and cough, as do I. Hopefully, we don't get worse. And, Emmett is starting to mope around, cough, and say he doesn't feel good. I'm praying he either doesn't get sick or gets sick now! Because, our trip home on Sunday will be delayed if he is sick. We can't be driving around if he has a fever. I don't want to be in the middle of nowhere if he has a seizure. Eddie has been working TONS to get ready for our trip. He's going to be out of the office for a month (week vacation and three weeks beer school), so he has a lot of work to do. But, I already got my Valentine's present. He got up w/ Owen in the middle of the night and did all the breathing treatments and one outside trip. I was able to sleep (kind of....). What a wonderful gift!
