Winter always seems to bestow it's gift of sickness upon my family year in and year out and of course, this year is no different. Micah came down with a fever on Sunday afternoon and progressively got worse until yesterday morning when he was diagnosed with strep throat. Come to find out... not only is that going around both the preschool and his Kindergarten center, but so is scarlet fever. We know at least one child whom has scarlet fever and I am back and forth about Micah possibly having a slight case of that as well. He has a rash all over his torso, arms and legs but it isn't bright red like it was yesterday so maybe we avoided that and have some other strange rash going on instead. No matter, he has missed two days of school and is drugged up every so many hours to keep his symptoms at bay. Thankfully his fever hasn't resurfaced since yesterday early evening so I think we are good to go back to school tomorrow. I am definitely ready for him to return ;) I knew he was MUCH better today when the usual bickering returned between he and Addison. Ah... two days of quiet was nice... Now I am just playing the waiting game as I fear that one of the remaining three of us will be the next victim... after all... we did share a large Pepsi merely 20 or so hours before he got sick. Nice eh?
