Its Either Love or the Plague

A recap of our Valentine's Day celebrations so far:
We have a stash of pink and red in the kitchen, but its not all Valentine's decorations. Its matching antibiotics and decongestants for Cambel and Ada along with tylenol and cough medicine and a thermometer. We got to go out--to the doctor. And we are even getting a special delivery --from the local Home Medical Equipment supplier in the form of a nebulizer for Cambel. We even got to share special time together--in the middle of the night, devising ways to calm Cambel's cough so he (and we) could rest.
And when I say "we" I really mean "me" since Kevin has had to work extra hours today.
So, Happy Valentine's Day!

The sick little kiddos



Actually, Kevin did stop by with heart-sprinkled doughnuts from work and a rose.  And I made heart-shaped pancakes this morning, so all is not lost:)

Well at least you don't ascribe to Karma or you might wonder about the worth of your recent acts of kindness! :) I love having the nebulizer for Jesse--since we've had it, it's saved us several trips to the doctor. Hope you're all better soon.

yeah no kidding.

the nebulizer is great--cambel is sleeping so well (for his nap). but now i am taking care of ada, who is also developing quite a cough.

Maria, sorry about the kids. I feel so bad for them. Happy Valentine's Day anyway. Did you get my card? I love you sister!

Isn't this winter great!! Claire is sick again with the same cough and congestion. We love our nebulizer as well. It has been a life saver numerous times. Hang in there:)
