Our house is quarantine

Jon has been under the weather for awhile 

Sunday evening, I felt the chill. 

Yesterday morning I woke up with a headache which by mid-day had transformed into a full on headache, earache, sore throat, sensible skin, chill and probably fever. 

I’ve never, ever felt that bad before! 

I went to the clinic and got some medication as it was within 24 hours of the symptoms starting. 

I slept from 3pm till 11am today and still can’t function. 

And now, my girl is not well so we are starting her on medication too. 

I hope we got this before she was anywhere near where I was yesterday. I hate that she can’t tell me when she’s not well. 

 
This is one of the side effect of Emily’s Cri du chat syndrome that I truly hate. I don’t know if it’s because she can’t feel it or because she can’t describe it but there is no way for me to know exactly how she feels. It’s a guessing game.

Ducks

I was truly wondering where she was going with that word.  Emily likes ducks and feeds them at the pond but other than that I couldn’t figure out why she would pick this word until she came back upstairs with this book:

Make Way for Ducklings

“Do you remember mom when we went to Boston and we saw the ducks in the park?  That’s the story in this book right?”


My girl has an amazing memory!

She loved the story when we were in Boston and we bought her the book as a souvenir!  It all comes back to books!
