Don't let these two fool you, Evelyn was crying earlier, at least 3 times, because her sisters are just so mean. And Camille has a fever of 102....
She didn't seem sick, she had just eaten dinner of plain spaghetti (she loves eating and playing with those spaghetti strands)....and some meatball cut up...., then some ice cream....she seemed fine....then after dinner, she felt very warm. I used the regular old fashioned mercury thermometer, which she did not like....she had her mouth open crying as I took it, so I only left it in her mouth for about 40 seconds. Which leads me to believe that she is even warmer than that.....
So, is it an illness? Her cough and cold turn into some nice infection? One of her million shots last week causing a fever? I read through all the pamphlets just now, and there are a few that cause fever a week later. The literature with the immunizations is written at about a 4th grade level. And I just don't want to start looking up possible reactions online. Too much to worry about. I will call the doctor tomorrow, though.

Which sort of ends my dilemma, which was: 1. Go grocery and snowpants shopping this afternoon, which is too late now....I don't really like being out in the cold dark snowy night shopping....or 2. Go tomorrow with 9 or 10 or 11 kids, since alot of them have a half day and are staying home. I was actually leaning toward option #2, since most of them really wanted to go. But, now we are staying home, unless I take Camille to the doctor. I told the girls that even if she seems better tomorrow, she won't be in any condition to go shopping.
I was writing a comment on someone's blog, encouraging, I hope, about taking things one thing at a time. What tomorrow brings is really not my business. I have enough to deal with just moment by moment. Do not be anxious for tomorrow. That is written in Matthew. Most of us know that. So, to really take that to heart.....with being up so much at night, sickness...on and on....I sometimes think of a passage from a Dr. Suess book, can't remember which one (I bet Martha knows!).....it goes like this: "Can this go on all day and night?
It could, you know, and it just might!"
Really though, when I start to look at the big picture in the wrong way, and think I cannot handle day after day of what ever it is that is hard for me, then I am thinking wrong. Today is the day of salvation.

After a little thought and searching We are wondering if the line might be from "The Glunk That Got Thunk" (Its in the I Can Lick Thirty Tigers Today") but I'm not really sure... Anyway, did I ever tell you that Mrs. McCave had twenty-three sons and she named them all Dave?
Hope your little one is feeling better.
I hear we're going to get some more snow. Break out the shovels!
I've often thought we should buy the gym mats costco has occasionally and cover the living room floor with them. If only hubby would leave the coffee table out of the way, instead of the middle of the room so we could have some more room to play.
By the way my mom doesn't care how long I'm no the phone as long as its not keeping me from stuff I have to get done, or her making a call.
And as far as me calling tell me if I become annoying or start calling to much I know this week I called quite a bit, and if you didn't like that I am sorry.
