Belated Valentine's Day

Yesterday, I stayed home to care for and comfort Allan. He wasn't feeling well. His sitter called me, about 25 mins after I dropped him off, stating he had a temp of 102. Poor thing had a loss of appetite and slept all day. He even turned down Sprite, which is a big deal since that's a treat at my home.

Allan was screened for the flu and tested negative at the pediatricians office, yesterday. He was diagnosed with a viral infection. His fever spiked last night to 104. As you can imagine, Scott and I didn't sleep well. Thankfully, I beleive, he has recovered today. He running around and his tempature was normal around noon.

Elena stayed home from school today. She came home from school with a 101 temp, yesterday, too. The doctor had the pleasure of seeing my face again. She, also, tested negative for flu and strep. She has a viral infection, as well.

Needless to say, my Valentine's Day was less than romantic. My thoughtful husband, planned on making me a steak dinner. His plans were out the window, as he was and still is ill. (I married a man with no immune system!)

Finally, this evening I got to have the dinner I had been waiting on since yesterday, with my family. It was awesome! I'm sure it wasn't as tasty to my sick loved ones, but I enjoyed it. Thanks Scott! You are the best!!
