While Daddy's Away...

Strep comes out to play -- or to squelch the play, as the case may be.

Sarah tends to be our strep susceptible. After no less than 5 strep tests this year (all negative -- each greatly surprising the administering party who in every instance assumed infection) today, today she hit the verifiable germ jackpot. (This also to the administering doctor's surprise. He was convinced she was negative.)

Since he was along for the unavoidable ride, a culture for Comrade Darren was ordered. Thankfully, he's clear. Thus far...
Looks like Sarah will miss out on the "Jonah" facet of Vacation Bible School tomorrow. Thankfully, she has a classmate who can pick up her "homework." A little Slurpee action for the sickee and her sibling goes a long way...

She's doing great today...frustrated about all the things he-child gets to do while she awaits the contagion-squelching antibiotics to do their duty.

And Carrie, you are SO right...ALWAYS when Daddy leaves town!
