Invisible Violin Solo

Here is the scene in our living room:

All three of us have been sick. First Tim, then Alexander, and then me. Here is a handy Venn Diagram to help in understanding our overlapping illnesses over the past week.


We are finally getting out of the green zone, and everyone is on the mend. We debated taking the baby to the doctor, especially after Alexander managed to sneeze/cough out something larger than his nose. We were grossed out and impressed at the same time. (Although we didn't save it for his baby book or anything.) Anyway, we didn't go to the doctor as she strikes us as the type to prescribe antibiotics for a cold or flu (colds and flus are caused by a virus, so antibiotics are probably used as a placebo -- or to stop whiny patients from whining.) We are all healing, and a closer family for the experience. Awwww....

OK, I have to run... the boy is dripping. You should probably wash your hands and eyes thoroughly after reading this entry.
