Small improvements....

I am reclining on my sofa as I type this.... not because I have everything done and have thus earned the right to relax for a few minutes, nor because I won the lottery and hired a maid to do all of my work for me... No, I am reclining on my sofa because I am sick! I suppose it's unavoidable when you've had three sick children coughing, sneezing and snotting on you for a week. I suppose it simply was inevitable that one or two of those germs was going to find a way in no matter how often I washed my hands. But I had hoped beyond hope.....
Ah well. I now am hoping beyond hope that I don't get it too badly, and that I can beat it quickly with the help of rest, vitamin C and some Zicam. At least my kids won't have to listen to me yell at them for a while; I've completely lost my voice.

Jaxson is still in bed quite sick. It's been 5 days for him now. Still running a fever of about 103 and feeling pretty terrible. We've also now missed 3 days of school, which is quite disappointing to me (although not to Jax!) because I really wanted to stay on track so that I could afford to take 2 weeks off when Lilah is born and still finish in the beginning of June. We had to take extra time off during the fires in California, and then 2 weeks when we moved back. Ah well, what will be will be, agreed?

Anyway, the title of this lovely post was "Small improvements" and so I will now stop whining and focus on those....
Ellie and Vance both got dressed today! They are both no longer running a fever, and seem to be much better. They're still coughing some, but it's improvement nonetheless. It proves that this illness IS beatable!

Please pray for us! We really need to get well, and Brady REALLY doesn't need to catch it. Especially because it seems to be a lower respiratory illness and with his asthma it would hit him very hard. He has a trip to San Diego planned for next week to do some jobs down there, so the timing would also not be good. So if you think of us poor, sick Campbell Clan, say a quick prayer okay? :>)

Love to all
