Poor girl...

Yesterday afternoon Paul called me at school to let me know that our little miss wasn't feeling well. She was sneezing gross green -- you don't want to know -- and was very, very tired. Turns out she also had a high fever. With having had febrile seizures in the past, we don't take Maelyn's fevers lightly.

With Advil in her system, she slept from 4:00 to 8:30 and she was out cold. It killed this mama that I was at school and couldn't be home to snuggle my little miss -- especially because she was feeling so sick.

But -- this mama had to scramble to get things done to go on parental leave. Today was supposed to be my last day of school, but I had to stay home with Maelyn and take her to see her paediatrician. It made for a nutty evening -- and it took me until 8:30pm to get things done and in order in my classroom. It wasn't exactly the day I had been planning for!

The good news is that Maelyn was given an antibiotic today and we are crossing our fingers, praying, doing a good luck dance -- you get the picture -- that Maelyn is healthy by the time we leave Tuesday morning. And that the rest of us stay healthy!!

Maelyn missed her last day of Kindergarten today and we will keep her home from daycare on Monday. It will help her to rest and not be exposed to more germs. :) It will make things a little harder as we will have Maelyn around the entire weekend and packing should be a heap of fun!

So what do you do when you have a fever and aren't feeling well? Sleep, you would think, right? Nope! Nothing keeps this girl from her flurry of activities...

We make maps of China to help us find our way there...

We make rice crispy trains...



We copy Mommy...hehe!

Hopefully our little miss feels better soon!
