No Germs Allowed

The boy has been hit hard with a nasty cold. Or somethin' like that.

One of my facebook friends said he didn't get the memo about NOT getting sick in the summer. Nope. He didn't.

And boy oh boy is the timing bad on this one.

We had a crazy busy fun day planned yesterday... breakfast out with our pals, a $1 movie, the 4th night of VBS, and don't make me go on.

Instead, I sat at home pouring 7-Up and Motrin down a feverish child's throat. And picking up snotty Kleenex.

We also had dentist appointments. (Can you make yourself sick to avoid the dentist?) Had to cancel those.

The worst part of it all is that this "summer sick" may just mess up our weekend plans. We are supposed to go to the beach. We're meeting my brother, sis-in-law, and nephew there. Spending a day or two on the beach and then all heading back to our house.

That is, if this fever breaks.

At least we got to see THE MOVIE WE'VE BEEN DYING TO SEE before the yuck hit. In our humble opinions... IT WAS THE BEST HARRY POTTER YET! (We are already making plans to go see it again.)

So bloggin' world friends, please pray for a quick recovery for this boy of mine. Being sick in the summer is no fun at all. And this momma has better things planned.

I'm sorry the creeping crud hit your house too. I agree with you - it just doesn't seem like kids should get sick in the summer time. They don't get to miss school or anything.

We loved the movie too and are also planning another trip to see it (on IMAX next). I finished the final book last night and I am blown away with what an awesome book series it is.
