Tyler's spider web

Tyler built a huge spider web in our kitchen on Monday. He caught Ella in it, or rather, it caught Ella and she landed on a sharp edge of our stairs and split a good cut right between her eyes. Goose Egg!
Then Tyler got sick. Last night he still had a raging fever of 102. He said I wish Dad was a doctor- we had just returned from the doctors an hour before. It was nice to remind him that dad wasn't a doctor but he did have the priesthood and could give him a blessing. The fever finally calmed at about 3 am. I have never experienced that before. I slept with him all night. His pillow, sheets and pj's were just drenched in sweat.

I just watched the clock tick waiting to give him more tylenol and motrin. So a cough, an ear infection, a high temp and missing all week of school... we are on the mend. And so is Ella's head!

The web is really cool. We may have to do that sometime.

I am glad you are all feeling better. Sick kids are the worst.
