Sick days

Sophie was sick this weekend, with a fever that didn't quit and a runny nose. You can tell she was sick because this happened:

As in, she fell asleep against the palm of my hand at 10am in the living room. She said she was burning inside. :(

And now she is much better - like I would say cured, except that it's only been 24 hours and she says her ears are stuffy so like, knock on wood and stuff. But I have caught it. I am runny and gross, but have no fever. I kind of think her body is smarter than mine, making a fever! But I am trying to kill it without fevers, by taking my elderberry syrup and drinking tea and taking vitamins and whatnot. We haven't been sick all winter, so that's a refreshing change from last year, at least! And I am feeling pretty fortunate, since my friend's family had the flu for 14 ENTIRE DAYS. 14! We are totally lucky to have avoided that.

Stay healthy, friends!
