Today is brought to you by the Letter S

That stands for Sick.

Well, it's that time of year again. Where the weather starts to grow cold, the leaves are off the trees, and rain that won't stop.

And of course cold season. McKenzie has one. Cough, cough, sneeze, sneeze, and a small fever. Lovely.

Of course the rest of us will get it too. Blah.

Worse thing about McKenzie being sick....she refuses to take anything for it. No medicine will ever go through her lips, unless you hold her down and quickly squirt it into her mouth, while holding her mouth shut; otherwise she will spit it right back out at you. Believe me it isn't a pretty sight. My poor ceiling had blood looking liquid dripping from it last time she was sick.

Also she won't ever sit still long enough to get well. So that drink lots of liquids and rest; yes well, ahem. No way.

The eating soup or anything that would make her feel better, yeah right. No soup, no tea, no nothing. Poor kid.

So that just makes the cold always last longer. Just means for a whinning, coughing, sneezing, hyper child for about a week. Fun times.

Feel free to let me know your tricks. I would love to have something more up my sleeve.
