Happy 12th Brithday Coy =)

Twelve years ago today I became a mom for the first time. I am so proud of the young man Coy is growing into. Thankful today for my blessings.

This is sure to be a memorable birthday, but for the wrong reasons :( Coy was diagnosed w/strep throat yesterday evening. He's been feeling pretty rough today, but is beginning to feel a little better. He even asked me for his birthday pancakes =)

Gloria Grace has also been sick :( She started w/a fever last Saturday. I thought it was her teeth, as she is cutting 4 molars. I took her to the doctor on Tuesday, and she said it was a viral infection that would have to run it's course. Her mouth is full of little ulcers & her gums are very irritated :( She has been one miserable little girl! I took her this morning thinking maybe she had strep too. She does not have strep, so hopefully we are at the tail end of her virus.

Oh the Yuck in the Air

I think my boys are finally on the mend, although Seth went to bed around 5:30 tonight. He still has a little bit of cold like symptoms, but hasn't run a fever since early yesterday.

The whole neighborhood is full of various yuck. There has been strep, vomitting, and chicken pox :-(

I'm looking forward to next Monday, when it is supposed to be 60º, and we can air the YUCK out of our houses--open the windows, and bring on the lysol :0)

Blog at ya later. . .

Prayer Request

Please pray for Coy, as he is home sick w/strep throat. He was up in the night w/a belly ache & sore throat. He has thrown up about 7 times this morning. A rapid strep test at the Minute Clinic confirmed my mom/nursing diagnosis. On a side note--did you all know that Publix fills most antibiotics for FREE. We just got back from picking up his meds, and he took his 1st dose. He's now asleep on the couch. I am about to join him, I worked last night.

Please also pray that Seth doesn't get it. Tomorrow is his birthday. Thanks :0)
