of bugs and things

the thing about having five kids in the house is that there is an abundance of unwanted germs brought into the house. okay, so most germs are unwanted. but some are just hanging out not bothering us and letting us live our normal lives in relative peace. the sniffles that one child has becomes a wheeze or a cough in a different child. or a sore throat and aches in another. or a very bad sore throat and slight fever in still another one. that's the one who doesn't complain when he has something really terrible. when he has pneumonia or a double ear infection. so this time, he's got strep. even the doctor was surprised.
so just about a month after he started on antibiotics for an ear infection, son two is back on antibiotics. hopefully he's feeling better by tomorrow!!

eta - another post went to draft!
