That tell-tale bark.....

at 4am this morning let me know Thomas had another case of croup. This is typical for him. He seems to have at least a couple bouts of it each winter. He went to see the ped and got a dose of orapred. Doctor says he can head back to school tomorrow if he has a good night. Meanwhile his sister, Kathryn, had that "can't get very far from the bathroom" syndrome. So she stayed home too. Suzanna was fine and headed off for a normal day at school. She came home with lots of homework for the twins, which they got finished up before heading to bed.

Hopefully this will be the end of the sickies, with Christmas coming, we need it over and done!

Heifer update: I haven't mentioned anymore about Fancy since her accident last Friday. Everything is looking good. Her eye is healing up, the skin looks healthy and the swelling has gone down a lot. I suspect when it has healed completely, the only time the scar will show is when she gets trimmed up for showing.

Christmas shopping is nearly done, the kids only have two days of school left and can't wait to be on their break.
