Ever have a child who is sick enough to stay home from school, but not actually all that sick? My daughter stayed home today because she started taking antibiotics yesterday morning for yet another ear infection. But by this morning she felt a-okay. I had quite a bit of work to do at church, so she came along. And was a tiny tornado all over my office. We came home for lunch and then she took a three hour nap. She is feeling pretty darn well. I, on the other hand, am tired after another night of mini-insomnia (awake from 3:30-5, then slept in a little this morning) and then tornado wrangling all day. Does this child look sick to you?

Oh yeah. Been there done that. Just last week, in fact. Older kids will actually lie on the couch in your office and read a book! Wonders never cease.10:09 PMLily, like her mother, HATES to be sick. It is, acoording to both of them, a waste of time when there is so much to see and do! (Has Bolivia been warned?)10:23 PMGlad she is feeling better. Tornado or not, she sure is a cutey.7:56 AMAs the cool kids are saying these days, "That kid is sick!"9:58 AMNote to all parents of rambunctious sickies: on the February 22, NPR's Morning Edition featured a piece on ear tubes--those surgically implanted devices that help some children stave off dreadful ear infections (but which some people feel are over-prescribed). If you're interested, it might be worth going to NPR's website to check it out.
