Will it ever end?






This has really been a nasty winter for sickness. I know we aren't the only ones that have battled sicknesses all winter long because I have talked to several people that have fought illness after illness, as well. So in our latest run (about 3 weeks long) we had a few different sicknesses including pink eye and strep throat, which resulted in all 6 of us having to take antibodics. (I actually felt very blessed that it turned out to be strep because I had to sing a solo "Greater Love" in "Women at the Well." I was so worried that I wouldn't get better in time, until Tierra broke out in a Scarlet Fever rash--the rash that sometimes comes with strep throat. That is why we ended up going to the doctor and we were all feeling better 48 hours later, just in time for me to sing.) Anyway, with the antibodics, we discovered that poor little Tierra is allergic to Amoxicillin, as she broke out in hives!! Poor girl! Then Karina broke out in an antibodic rash, which wasn't bad at all, compared to Tia. Hopefully, we have had enough sicknesses to last us a while. That would be great, considering our new baby is coming soon!

Two pictures from Day 1 (you can barely tell), then a picture from Day 2 (she did not want her picture taken, can you tell? I don't blame her, she was pretty miserable), and Day 3 when her spots looked worse (except on her face) but she was a lot happier. And the final picture is of my friend and I, she also sang in the production. She has an amazing voice!
